Sadly, at the time of recording the demo, I was alone.īefore being able to start with the code, we need to envision how the application will be working. I think I should mention that this works with multiple faces in the field of view of the camera at the same time. Small sneak peeks of possible future stages are collecting data on the go, setting up a smarter model, and updating and loading models online through dependency injection.įor now, we will be creating the code required for the application to detect the faces and communicate with the face recognition model. So I decided to blog the process of me building one. So, I really wanted to start building one I could keep in my pocket. I don't remember exactly when the idea came to mind however, I know that face recognition is a pretty common thing in movies or series. Even though I would love to start working on something that huge one day, I've also had this desire to build a live face recognition application for a while now. Sadly, we are still far from creating an artificial intelligence as brilliant as the ones in Transcendence, Ex Machina or I, Robot. Kindly let me know in the comments: What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think of technology you've seen in movies or series? While this is still far from possible, I've always wanted to create futuristic software I've seen in movies. The first thing that comes to my mind is The Matrix and the ability to download any skill onto a person's brain.

We've all seen things in movies we wish were real.
