I am working on a project and need a good Face Recognition API (paid also works) that can work in realtime on CCTV footage. The camera could be angled, the lighting could be low so the accuracy, specifically recall should be quite high.
Hey, I want to detect faces using API, I tried using Amazon Rekognition but it requires credit card details so it is not an option for me, and then I tried using Microsoft Cognitive API but I am unable to use for face recognition Since its code is available in C# but I need it for Python. So do you know any other API which might help for Face Recognition?
Just to be clear: recognition and detection are two different things.
Opencv offers face detection in python using either har Cascades or deep nets.
As geeklk83 mentioned, you sound like you are Co fusing face detection and tlrecognition. Regardless, try the DLib API. It's free open source, has python bindings, and works well.
