Face Recognition Middleware suits surveillance market.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:02:41 -0500

Including API for expandability, FSE(TM) (Face Sensing Engine(TM)) v4 for embedded systems can detect faces and identify specific human beings from surveillance videos. FSE Ver.4 can detect and capture faces from broad range of angles to enable face detection from cameras that are mounted at ceiling level. This reduces network load as system can select only relevant videos or images to be transmitted over network.
