Facial Recognition in Flutter using Google ML Kit


I am doing a project that requires real time facial recognition for android and ios using flutter. After some research I found Google's ML Kit library. So essentially detecting a face from a phone camera and attaching a name to it from a predefined dataset.

Since we will be using flutter I found this repo made by Google's ML Kit team for example apps https://github.com/flutter-ml/google_ml_kit_flutter/tree/master. Again theres face detection and face mesh detection, I'm slightly confused where to start with and the best way to go about this.

The link I attached contains face detection (example 1 ) and and face contour detection (example 2). Which of those paths should I take to achieve my solution


Solution

  • ML Kit allows you to find faces in a picture/stream but it is not a face-recognition API
