    Sentinel Facial Recognition: Black Edition - Free for 3 cams

    I noticed they say face detection, not recognition. There are generally 2 steps to face rec 1) face detection 2) face matching. Both are heavy ML models. I think it is an awesome step forward but do notice that one thing is not the same as the other

    Wall mounted tablets

    You could try now with a pi3. You get POE and a raspbian to play around. That plus the touch screen and a case with vesa mount would do the trick for under $100

    Sentinel Facial Recognition: Black Edition - Free for 3 cams

    So far I'm liking it. I basically gave half the resources of the box to docker to run sentinel and kept the rest for windows. The form factor is a very appealing feature for me. I installed both Ubuntu and Windows on it and it runs great on both, although it seems to me it runs a little faster...

    Just Sharing My Progress

    That image should be good for facial. given you have something to compare against. One note about facial and wide angle cameras. They have some relevant distortion towards the edges, if you must use one for facial only the center region will produce good images.
