RPi2 + RPi camera, control with laptop via Putty+Xming. I installed OpenCV 2.4.9 on RPi2.
I wrote a little script in Python and made 20 pictures with RPi2 + RPi camera. Then I used paviro’s MMM-Facial-Recognition-Tools to train with the saved pictures, also in RPi2. (paviro says it can be pretty slow on RPi, but it wasn’t. :) ) After this I gave MMM-Facial-Recognition module to Magic Mirror config.js and the classis to the other modules.
It works, but can recognize my face rarely. Maybe I made the pictures in inappropriate lighting conditions?

@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!
