Intel RealSense SDK algorithms

[DCīru]

Hi,

I'm currently using SR300 and I'm wondering if someone could please tell me what face detection and recognition algorithms are used in Intel RealSense SDK.

Hi DavisC,

Thanks for your interest in the Intel® Realsense™ Platform.

If you are interested in the algorithms for face detection and recognition, I would encourage you to browse through the SDK documentation https://software.intel.com/sites/landingpage/realsense/camera-sdk/v2016r3/documentation/html/index.html?doc_face_face_tracking_and_recognition.html Intel® RealSense™ SDK 2016 R3 Documentation in order to understand how they work.

Now, it is important that you know that the face recognition feature is at alpha maturity http://registrationcenter-download.intel.com/akdlm/irc_nas/9560/release_notes_RealSense_SDK_2016_Face_Detection_v11.0.pdf http://registrationcenter-download.intel.com/akdlm/irc_nas/9560/release_notes_RealSense_SDK_2016_Face_Detection_v11.0.pd… , this means that some features may or may not work.

Hope you find this information useful, have a nice day!

Best Regards,

-Jose P.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply but I was kind of hoping to find out if it's using something like http://www.cv-foundation.org/openaccess/content_cvpr_2013/papers/Li_Learning_SURF_Cascade_2013_CVPR_paper.pdf http://www.cv-foundation.org/openaccess/content_cvpr_2013/papers/Li_Learning_SURF_Cascade_2013_CVPR_paper.pdf or something else?

It might not be a part of my initial question but I'd also like to know if any of these are used in SR300 / SDK:https://www.google.com/patents/US8805018 https://www.google.com/patents/US8805018

There is an old version of Facial Recognition at this address:

https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/code-sample-facial-recognition-using-intel-realsense-sdk/ RealSense - Code Sample: Facial Recognition Using Intel® RealSense™ SDK | Intel® Software

There is a known problem saving the in-memory database of faces to disk, which Intel will hopefully still be working on.

There is a known problem with the database limit of 20 faces which Intel will hopefully extend in the future.

Hi DavisC,

Unfortunately, we can't disclose that level of information. We would encourage you to analyze the source code in the SDK for the Intel® Realsense™ Cameras (https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-realsense-sdk/download Intel® RealSense™ SDK | Intel® Software ), you will be surprised what can be achieved with these cameras.
