Abstract

A system and machine-implemented method for real-time facial recognition at an image capture device is provided. The method includes capturing an image at an image capture device, the image containing at least a first person, analyzing the image to identify one or more data points corresponding to the first person, determining if mapping information corresponding to the one or more data points is locally available at the image capture device, sending a request to a remote device for mapping information when it is determined that mapping information corresponding to the one or more data points is not locally available at the image capture device, receiving mapping information corresponding to the one or more data points in response to the request and locally storing the mapping information at the image capture device.
