FaceL is a simple and fun face processing and labeling tool that labels faces in a live video from an iSight camera or webcam. It currently runs as an application on any Mac with a camera and it may be downloaded from:
A Linux version is expected very soon and we are working on a Windows version.FaceL is designed to be easy to use and there are several videos demonstrating FaceL on this site. FaceL is based upon openSource components, including the cascade face detector available through OpenCV and a support vector machine built using LIBSVM. The eye finder that precisely locates the face is based upon an ASEF correlation filter developed at Colorado State. More technical background on FaceL is available through SourceForge.
FaceL is quick in that it can recognize multiple people at essentially video rate, but it is not designed to handle more than a couple of people at a time. Please enjoy playing with FaceL and refer to the SourceForge site for additional details.
The name FaceL is short for Facile Face Labeling, and is pronounced 'facile'.
