The required modules for face search or recognition, age/gender recognition, or visitor counting are activated by creating an object corresponding to the required recognition module on the basis of the Face recognition server object.
The Recognition channel and Tevian/Cognitec/VisionLabs recognition module are used for real-time face recognition via the specified channel.
For correct operation of the recognition modules, the Run x64 modules checkbox should be checked on the settings panel of the Computer object (see Face recognition modules). |
To activate Age/gender defining channel, Archive search channel, Recognition channel and Visitor counting channel modules select the required Face detection object on the settings panel of the corresponding object (see Setting parameters for captured faces recognition).
The Cognitec recognition module is activated in two stages:
2.1. Create a request file:
| The hwkey.bat file should be run on the PC that will run the face recognition module. |
2.2. Send the Cognitec8lic.txt file to the Face Intellect vendor.
2.3. Receive the activationkey.cfg from the Face Intellect vendor.
2.4. Copy the activationkey.cfg file to the <Face intellect installation directory>\Modules\FaceRecognition\Cognitec8\bin folder.
2.5. Rename the activationkey.cfg file to Cognitec8License.cfg.
2.6. Run the CognitecLicenseUtil.exe file in the <Face Intellect installation directory>\Modules\FaceRecognition as administrator.
Administrator rights are required for proper operation of the CognitecLicenseUtil.exe file. Re-installing the operation system on the PC that runs the face recognition module requires a new activation key file for the Cognitec face recognition module. Changing the hardware configuration or the name of the PC that runs the face recognition module does not affect the Cognitec activation key. |
The activation of the Cognitec face recognition module is completed.
The activation of the Tevian face capture and recognition module is performed using the intellect.sec key file. Additional key files are not required.
The module is activated by the standard activation procedure that includes creating a Tevian recognition module object on the basis of the Face recognition server. A child object that shows the number of faces in the database should be created on the basis of the created object:
Standard memory consumption for the Tevian recognition module is up to 500 Mb per channel. For small databases (up to 1000 faces), the module can handle events at a speed of no more than 1500 events per second. For larger databases, the number of compared faces is from 390 to 550 per second for one processor core. |
There are lots of parameters settings in Tevian module - they are set in Windows registry (see Registry keys reference guide and Working with Windows OS registry). |
For proper operation of Face Intellect after changing this parameter biometric vectors are to be converted as described in Transition between face recognition modules section. |
SDK Tevian 2.3.0 is installed starting from version 7.1.0.908 of Face Intellect. |
The current version of Tevian module can be seen in the Version/Vector size (bytes) field in the Statistics tab of the Face recognition and search interface module (see Displaying the statistics). |
The VisionLabs face recognition module is activated in two stages:
