face detection

face detection

  • Hi everyone. I'm considering to buy the leopardboard 365 to be used for face detection with 

    the camera module. On the website of leopardboard it is stated that: 

    "Face detection module is available"

    What exactly does that mean? Is it free to use? Are there any license fees? 

     

    thanks for any help in advance! best regards! 

  • Current Leopardboard 365 doesn't support face detection. The face detection chip should have "F" on that, which takes much longer lead time to get it.

  • Thank you for the reply. So what "Face detection module is available" means on the leopardboard site

    is actually - "it will be available in the future, but if you buy it now, you won't get it"?!

    Sorry to say, but that's disappointing and looks like false advertisement to me.

  • In fact, V1.4 should have face detection, from chip surface you can tell the part number is TMS320DM365ZCE30F, the "F" means face detection, but it seems this batch of DM365 doesn't have this function even it has "F". I am checking with TI about this issue.

  • Thank you, I'm looking forward to hearing back from you on this issue. I'd definitely be

    interested in the beagle board, if this feature was included. best regards!

  • sorry:

    beagleoboard --> leopardboard

  • Hi there, any idea when will V1.4 be shipped? Or are there a batch of boards available with the face detection engine chip mounted? Thanks.

  • Hi, I have a Leopardboard DM368 V1.5 with face detection module, so the LB DM368 should be your choice. But there is no support for the FD engine in the RR SDK.
