Google Photos face detection is really good... at getting it wrong (!)

Like, really. When I used an iPhone, it was super good at detecting who was who. Now I'm on Android... well, let me tell you, its a nightmare to filter my photos by person.

In the movies, people running from law enforcement can hack into face detection and put their face onto someone else.

But can we do this same kind of hack in real life? A researcher tries his hand at it with fascinating results.

It's a gripping scene in Dead Reckoning with Tom Cruise.

Agents chase down a suspect they see on airport face detection. But when they grab the guy by the shoulder and turn him around, they find out he's someone entirely different.

Has real life caught up with the movies? Can face recognition systems be hacked like this? A researcher decides to find out. Here's what happened.

New hands-on tutorial on The Main Thread 🚀

I built a real-time emotion detector in Java using #Quarkus, #JavaCV, #WebSocketsNext, and #LangChain4j.

The pipeline streams webcam frames → detects faces locally → sends only the cropped face to a multimodal LLM (GPT-4o/Gemini) for emotion classification.

High-throughput + low latency = fun and surprisingly practical.

This is pretty neat. Not the huge bloated setup one needs, but a tiny fine minimum.

"This is an open source library for CNN-based face detection in images. The CNN model has been converted to static variables in C source files. The source code does not depend on any other libraries. What you need is just a C++ compiler"

How well it works, I will find out.
I have been playing with dlib's builtin face detection, it was ok but not perfect.

Testing *deface* (https://github.com/ORB-HD/deface), a command line application to detect and anonymize peoples faces in video and images. I tested earlier an image (https://todon.nl/@joenepraat/111703627023452784). This is a video I made after the sit-in inside #UtrechtCS had ended, and the crowd walked to the Stadskantoor (City office) on the other side of the station.

I'm very satisfied with the results. This video is rendered with the default settings, except the audio was kept with the -k option. Best open-source face anonymizer I could find (maybe I missed something). It would be great if someone would make a mobile app based on this code, so that people who film demonstrations could anonymize and upload on the fly.

Edit: I know about #ObscuraCam, but it looks that the development has stalled and it is not as good as this utility.
