Features

  • High-speed
    processing
    Succinct and concise algorithm which has been achieved through our experience developing embedded devices. It performs with high speed and accuracy despite slow CPUs.
  • High-Accuracy
    It has shown extremely high-detecting performance in mobile usage, in which cutting-edge technology is required, as it has been developed over approximately 20 years.
  • High
    robustness
    It can show high performance even in poor lighting conditions (such as backlight or slanting rays of light) or regardless of any facial conditions (such as face directions or complexions).

Line up

  • OKAO Vision has a lineup of various functions in detection, recognition and correction.
  • Can select and use only favorite functions.

Detect

  • Face detection

    Face detection

    Detects faces from the images.

    Face detection

    Detect with high accuracy and speed multiple faces of various size through the use of a unique algorithm.

    Features

    • Can detect faces in all 360 degrees roll angle.
    • Can detect and track faces partially occluded.
    • Can be implemented in various equipment.
    • * Faces from incorrect angles such as back facing can't be detected.
  • Body detection

    Body detection

    Detects bodies from the images.

    Human Body Detection

    Can detect human bodies that cannot be detected through face detection.

    Features

    • Can detect small, back-facing or backlit bodies
    • Can detect squatting bodies.
    • Can be implemented in various equipment.
    • * Due to using upper-body silhouette for detection, angles don't show silhouette are not suitable for detection. (e.g. directly above)
  • Facial parts detection

    Facial parts detection

    Detects key facial features such as eyes and nose from images.

    Facial parts detection, face direction estimation

    Can detect the position of the eyes and mouth with OMRON's model fitting technology and estimate the direction of a face.

    Features

    • Can detect the position of the eyes and mouth, and estimate the face direction, regardless of the face orientation or facial expressions.
    • Can be used under various lighting condition.
    • Can be implemented in various equipment.
  • Facial parts contour detection　

    Facial parts contour detection　

    Detects the outline of faces from the images.

    Facial parts contour detection　

    Can detect not only eyes, mouth and nose but also contour of the face.

    Features

    • Can detect the contour of face with high accuracy regardless of expression changes.
    • Can be used to create look-alike avatars or help analyze facial expressions.

Recognize & Estimate

  • Face recognition

    Face recognition

    Match detected faces with pre-registered faces, and authenticate personnel.

    Face recognition

    Recognition can be done in various environments.

    Features

    • Can recognize with high accuracy under various situations for face orientation, expressions, lighting conditions and skin tones.
    • Can be used for face search or login features.
  • Gaze/Blink estimation

    Gaze/Blink estimation

    Estimate the gaze and the blink from detected face.

    Click here for more information

    Gaze & Blink Estimation

    Can detect the position of the eyes and mouth with OMRON's model fitting technology and estimate the gaze direction and blink degree of the eyes.

    Features

    • Can estimate the gaze direction on both horizontal and vertical axis.
    • Can quantify the blink degree of the eyes.
    • Can be implemented in various equipment.
  • Gender/Age

    Gender/Age

    Estimate gender and age from the detected faces.

    Click here for more information

    Gender & Age Estimation

    Estimate the gender and age from the facial image.

    Features

    • Can estimate the gender and age of a face with high estimation regardless of skin tones.
    • Can divide the estimated age ranged as per the user's preferences.
    • age and gender counting for customer analysis
  • Expression estimation

    Expression estimation

    Estimate the facial expressions from the detected faces.

    Click here for more information

    Expression Estimation

    Can estimate the facial expression.

    Features

    • Can estimate 5 expressions (neutral, happiness, surprise, anger and sadness).
    • Can estimate the expression degree based on positive expressions (happiness) and negative expressions (anger and sadness).
    • Can be used on a single image.
  • Imposter Prevention

    Imposter Prevention

    Distinguish between human images and real humans.
