Documentation for Face Intellect 7.3. Documentation for other versions of Intellect is available too.
The base version of Intellect serves as the software platform for installing Face Intellect. Third-party face recognition modules are integrated into Face Intellect.
Face recognition modules operate through the interaction of the following Face Intellect objects:
- Face detection system object
- Face Recognition Server system object
- Face recognition and search system object
Recommended scheme for the Face Intellect-based video surveillance system looks like this:
On this scheme Face detection is in use for face detection and vector generation on remote clients. Face Recognition Server is in use for online face recognition as well as face search in archive on the main client. The benefit of such division is that the more resource consuming process – vector generation – is performed on remote clients (their number can be increased). It allows creating a large system with common database of reference images and enlarging it at any moment.
All processes can be combined on the same computer for small systems (i.e. creation of Face detection and Face Recognition Server).
Moreover, there is a scheme when face detection is possible on remote clients only, and vector generation is performed on the main client (see item 8 of Setting parameters for detected faces recognition section).
Important!
Several Face Recognition Server modules cannot be used on the same computer simultaneously.
