  • @Roshan Wijesena which approach you used? I used opencv and its working but the output i want to get is like if i scan my face in beard and next scan my picture w/o beard it must be scan and recognize. but currently i am getting its recognizing same face as it scanned prior. – Devendra Singh Mar 18 '16 at 08:17

You can try Microsoft's Face API. It can detect and identify people. learn more about face API here.

macgyver offers face detection programs via a simple to use API.

The program below takes a reference to a public image and will return an array of the coordinates and dimensions of any faces detected in the image.

You use class media.FaceDetector in android to detect face for free.

This is an example of face detection: https://github.com/betri28/FaceDetectCamera
