OpenCV recently released a Face recognition SDK in collaboration with seventh sense. It is top 10 model on NIST Face Recognition Challenge (March 2022) , blazingly fast with no GPU required.

In the opencv-seventhsense FR webapp you can create a collection and aggregate Persons in your organization into groups. Each person added to the collection has properties like name, date-of-birth, nationality, gender which can be used to identify the person.

Below is the link to the webapp and snapshot of the UI.

OpenCV — SeventhSense- Face Recognition Webapp

Python and C++ SDK is available to post image object to the API and retrieve the detection response on a given image.

Below code snippets enable you to add persona to a collection and retrieve the detection response on a given test image.

I used an old image of myself to see if the model is able to detect my face accurately.

Import the image to FR Webapp
