Facial Recognition - customize your mirror for every user!

@sunnysys Somewhere in the code is a hardcoded setting of the resolution that is captured (I will add an option for that someday but I am busy with school right now). If you set this to an higher resolution you will not have to stand as close but it will require more processing power :)
Please also note that you should take the pics in a similar lightning environment as your mirror will be! -
@paviro Really thanks paviro, I will try to find it! :)
-
@sunnysys Thank you!!! Sounds straight forward enough!!
Thank you again!!!
-
@sunnysys OH shoot I just sat down to order some stuff for this and realized I didn’t ask you which camera did you get? Did you get the regular or NOIR version?
Do you mind sharing your py script that you used to make the pictures? Much appreciated!
Thanks!
-
@cowboysdude @sunnysys why not use the capture script in the module repo?
We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?

@paviro When I get the camera and rebuild the mirror I will do that!! Sounds like it may be easier…
-
@cowboysdude I’ve got the 5MP regular version PiCamera. I read somewhere that the new 8MP ones still got some issues. Don’t know what’s the situation with it now.
Yes, I can share you my capturing code but now I’ve tried to capture images with the built in script of paviro’s MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools and it works fine. No need to use other script anymore. :) -
@paviro I tried it at first time and it seemed not working. Don’t know what the problem was but I’ve taken a second try right now and it works like a charm. :) Thanks!

Someone know if this module could work with a USB webcam? I try but don´t recognize me. I have the training.xml document on the folder, then start the MagicMirror and Raspberry start the module, but then nothing. I need to do something else? Need to configure in a different way? Or not be possible?

@piedaniel did you set “useUSBCam” to True in the config.js?
-
yes, I configure in true useUSBCam.
-
I’m holding off on the facial recognition until I can figure out how to use in conjunction with pir sensor to turn mirror on and off…
-
Can anyone show me an example of how the classes should sit in the config.js file? I’m confused
-
Take a look at the stock
~/MagicMiror/config/config.js.samplefile. That should give you a good start. -
im stuck at this part of the facial recognition tools - “Write down the [‘name’, ‘name2’,‘name3’] part because you will later need it for setting up your mirror’s face recognition.” , Where do i find those names ? i see a folder has been created in the training data , but training.xml doesnt have any names
-
Nevermind , got it , stupid mistake

Hello,
I just discovered this project and i want to try this module before to build my MagicMirror !!!i’ve got a problem with the facial recognition tools…
i use a usbcam, i try with fswebcam without problem, i enable the webcam in raspi-config but when i trycapture.py, i’ve got a errorCapturing positive training images. Type c (and press enter) to capture an image. Press Ctrl-C to quit. c Capturing image... mmal: mmal_vc_component_create: failed to create component 'vc.ril.camera' (1:ENOMEM) mmal: mmal_component_create_core: could not create component 'vc.ril.camera' (1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "capture.py", line 35, in <module> capture.capture() File "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facetrainer/lib/capture.py", line 55, in capture image = camera.read() File "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools/facetrainer/lib/picam.py", line 23, in read with picamera.PiCamera() as camera: File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/picamera/camera.py", line 488, in __init__ self.STEREO_MODES[stereo_mode], stereo_decimate) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/picamera/camera.py", line 526, in _init_camera "Camera is not enabled.

@lepetitnicolas To my knowledge , capture .py only works with the built in webcam , that is , the pi camera module . Plus , if you are already taking images via fswebcam , why not just select option 2 in capture.py, the one with using already existing .jpg files ? Why capture again ?

thank. it works !
