I could very easily submit some of the people I’m following on Twitter to this site. And I’m sure the same can be said of me by some others. Oh well! I guess I should stop Tweeting so hard.
Things iPhoto thinks are faces
April 7, 2009 @ 12:32 am
Anyone who has used iPhoto’s new face recognition feature knows that it isn’t perfect. I’ve personally had a pretty good run with it being able to recognize faces, but every once in a while, I have been asked by iPhoto to confirm a face in a picture that clearly is not a face (human or animal). This Flickr photo pool consists of many photos of iPhoto’s face recognition going haywire. Kinda fun to go through and see how bad face recognition software can get. [via]
Nikon Coolpix S60 ad for face recognition
December 2, 2008 @ 3:56 pm
Nikon is advertising its Coolpix S60 compact digital camera with these clever ads that show off (and exaggerate, I’m sure) just how great its facial recognition system is. With all of the hoopla in the UK about false advertising from Apple, I wonder if these ads would garner the same reaction. I mean, no way is Nikon’s face recognition software that good.
