Abstract

The present invention relates to a system for detecting and tracking facial features in images and can be used in conjunction with a camera. Given a camera, the system will detect facial landmarks in images. The present invention includes software for real time, accurate facial feature detection and tracking in unconstrained images and videos. The present invention is better, more robust and faster than existing approaches and can be implemented very efficiently allowing real-time processing, even on low-power devices, such as mobile phones.
