Fotonation Debuts Face Detection Software for Camera Phones

FotoNation Face Tracker detects the presence and position of a subject's face at up to 30 frames per second during image capture enabling the optimal setting of exposure, focus and color balance.

At the Mobile Imaging Summit, FotoNation demonstrated simultaneous tracking of up to 8 faces on a camera phone. Previously only available in digital still cameras, FotoNation Face Tracker is a highly portable software implementation that scales in performance according to the power of the processor used in the device.

FotoNations demonstration featured a camera phone with face detection and tracking comparable in performance to currently shipping digital cameras. The small footprint implementation is platform independent and was shown on both Symbian Series 60 3rd edition OS and Windows Mobile 5.0.
