Detecting the face of a person using Face recognition techniques

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

I am looking if Power automate provides Face detection technique? My requirement is to give an input of the image of a person's face, train the model with similar images and detect the person's face among other faces. How can I resolve this use case?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    You could try and use the Detect Faces API from Azure. 

    https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/cognitive-services/face/#demo

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/faceapi/#detect-faces

    Hi @Expiscornovus ,

    Thanks for the reply.

    Is Azure premium account mandatory for it? I'm not getting the action 'Detect faces' in my flow.trigger.png

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Yes, you are right. There are a couple of prerequisites.

     

    An Azure subscription, a Face resource and an API key is required to set this up:

    @Expiscornovus ,

    Can i identify a required face from a video? Does Azure Face API supports it?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Probably yes, if you would analyse frame by frame.

     

    Have a look at this example for inspiration:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/face/face-api-how-to-topics/howtoanalyzevideo_face

    Thanks for the reply

    Can you share any video or documents regarding creating 'Attendance system' using the Face recognition . That's my end goal.

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    There are lot of nice resources on the internet. This is one of those examples:

    Real-time Face Recognition With Microsoft Cognitive Services, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCSyRO0KotA

     

    That is a presentation about such a type of solution using the Face API, https://jkdev.me/real-time-face-recognition/

    @Expiscornovus ,

    Thanks for the reply.

    These solution use JavaScript or C# mainly for the purpose. But is there a solution that uses Power App and Power Automate mainly?
