Question

I've been looking for a software (that has a SDK avaliable) to recognize faces from a camera and from a image. It doesn't matter if it is paid or not.

So far, I came up with these:

Luxand FaceSDK
OpenCV

FaceSDK is perfect, but the licence is way out of what I can pay (U$10k) and I haven't had any time to play with OpenCV, but I'd like to have a bit more suggestions on what I can use.

It is going to be used into a comercial environment, so if it needs a special licence for it, a note on that would be appreciated.

Explanation / Answer

There is pyFaces which has a number of features for face detection using EigenFaces but there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity on it lately. It is however open source so may be a good starting point for you.

For face detection you can use python with OpenCV bindings as detailed here.
