Hi. I would like to ask if anyone knows any suitable face recognition program that can detect human face then send signal to arduino? I'm wondering which one would be easier to do: to use face recognition on the web, or do face recognition with matlab? Trying to reduce the time to complete the face recognition..

Why not you try both method see which is easier to send out signal and share with people here your result

maybe you can look at openCV libary for Processing IDE; for the face recognition.

You can use Raspberry Pi and webcam with OpenCV. With some programming, you can use the GPIO pin to send signal to Arduino or stuff outside. OpenCV has pretty good libraries for facial recognition.

Alternatively, if you are just on the computer, the Matlab (with Image processing library) or the OpenCV will work too.

Hi, for your information, the MD10C is compatible with 3.3V logic. It should have no problem to use with the Arduino Due.
Regarding the LED, I still recommend to connect a resistor in series with the LED to limit the current.

And for the LCD shield, I haven't tested it before on 3.3V system. So I can't comment on that.

Hope this helps.

Hi WillHolt, thanks for the feedback and sharing, appreicate it. Anyway it seem to be under the wrong topic. You can always open new topic to discuss or share.
