Face Detection in Android?

  1. Try FaceDetector in the Android SDK. It returns face positions and angles in BMPs. But it’s not very fast.

    Here’s a realtime face detection sample using FaceDetector and OpenGL (draws rectangles) which works in Android 2.2.

  2. OpenCV in Android

    You’d better try this on Linux (I’ve tried it on Windows, but failed).

  3. JavaCV (strongly recommended)

    There is a sample code of realtime face detection using the camera. See “javacv-src-*.zip” on the download page.
