Oki's Face Recognition Engine for Mobile Phones

October 19, 2005

This morning I received this announcement from Japan Corporate News Network:

Oki Electric Releases Image Processing Middleware that Supports Face Recognition for Use in Mobile Phones

The release announces that Oki has begun marketing its Face Sensing Engine (FSE), a middleware product for facial image processing. The�first�use for the FSE is as an embedded application in mobile phones.

Seems to me that the initial purpose�must be for identification for security purposes. Today's release says that, besides mobile applications, Oki plans to market FSE for use in games and user interfaces. An application that allows your computer or network to recognize your face could make an interesting contribution to an advanced user interface, especially when combined with speech recognition technology.
