6. FACE DETECTION
TECHNOLOGY
Face detection is a computer technology being
used in a variety of applications that identifies
human faces in digital images.
It is a function of the camera that detects human
faces so that the camera can set the focus and
appropriate exposure for the shot automatically.
7. HISTORY
• Francis Galton(1888)
Designed a biometric system for description and identification of
faces.
• In 1960s, the first semi-automated system for facial recognition
to locate the features(such as eyes, ears, nose and mouth).
8. CONTD…
• Woody Bledsoe(1964)
First implementation of automatic facial recognition.
• In 1970’s, Goldstein and Harmon used 21 specific subjective
markers such as hair color and lip thickness to automate the
recognition.
9. APPLICATIONS OF FACE DETECTION TECHNOLOGY
1. Easy people tagging:
Facebook’s automatic tag suggestion feature, which used
face recognition
to suggest people you might want to tag in your photos.
Face recognition for people tagging certainly saves time.
10. 2. Security:
Nowadays, security is becoming an important issue in our lives.
This technology is being used today from crime solving to
authentication.
Face recognition is slowly replacing password login.
Information Security Intranet security, file
encryption.
Law enforcement CCTV control, shop lifting and
suspect tracking, passport,
national ID

12. 3. Digital attendance:
Digital attendance system is being used because the digital
information is easy to process and far easy to access as compared
to manual data.
17. ADVANTAGES
1.Accurate and Fast Identification
2. High Usability and Security
3. User friendly design
4. Can identify terrorists, criminals
18. LIMITATIONS
1. Image quality
2. Isn't always accurate
3. Hindered by glasses, masks, long hair etc.

19. CONCLUSION
Face recognition technology has come a long way in the last
twenty years. Today, machines are able to automatically verify
identity information for secure transactions, for surveillance and
security tasks, and for access control.,
Next generation face recognition systems are going to have
widespread application in smart environments -- where computers
and machines are more like helpful assistants.
