Facial recognition is a fairly well-known technique in the world of artificial intelligence. It is a technique that a priori seems very difficult because it has a rather complicated neural architecture and its use is sometimes associated with systems that require a lot of computation.
The question is, do we need to know all the ins and outs of these AI networks and buy systems that are worth a lot of money? No, for less than 80 euros we can set up a facial recognition system that can verify the identity of several people. We only need certain technical concepts such as:
Small notions of programming (very basic) (Python).
Understand what an identification vector is (our face ID)
How the verification process is done.
Finally buy a low-resource system like a Raspberry PI 3B (50 euros) + a webcam (30 euros).
We will also talk about how to store biometric vectors in a safe way.
In addition to this, we will analyze strategies and techniques to avoid attacks on the facial recognizer, such as:
- Spoofing and Deep Fakes
- Liveness detection
- ID vector thefts.
