MicroFace Kit STM32N6

Starter Kit For Facial Recognition On STM32N6 chip.

Quickly Test our face recognition technology on STM32N6 platform.

We have developed recognition solutions optimized for STMicroelectronics’ STM32N6 component. By leveraging the exceptional computing power of this microcontroller, and in particular its neural accelerator (ST Neural ART Accelerator), we offer an ultra-fast and robust facial recognition application. This technology enables real-time neural inferences directly in the embedded system, paving the way for innovative security and identification systems. In addition, thanks to the integration of a Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor, our MicroFace STM32N6 solutions incorporate a state-of-the-art live detection feature, capable of effectively countering presentation attacks

Face capture

Compatible with a wide range of cameras from leading manufacturers, ensuring versatile and comprehensive biometric data acquisition.

Feature Extraction

Extracts facial features from detected faces, producing a compact face template for efficient face matching.

Face Recognition

Ensures accurate identification by matching detected faces against a database with ultra-fast performance in both one-to-one and one-to-many search modes.

Liveness Detection

Detects presentation attacks (photos, screen…) thanks to ST time-of-flight (ToF) sensor.

Performance

Execution on embedded platforms.

The models we develop are optimized to reduce library size and improve execution speed on MicroFace STM32N6. The templates generated by our extraction algorithms are among the smallest on the market (less than 148 bytes) and the matching algorithm also requires very low resources.

proven itself in world-renowned NIST evaluation.

id3 Technologies face recognition algorithm has proven excellent tradeoff between accuracy, speed and template size in the NIST ongoing Face Recognition Technology Evaluation (FRTE). The FRTE was initiated by the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST) in February 2017. It is designed to measure the performance of automated face recognition technologies applied to a wide range of civil, law enforcement and homeland security applications including verification of visa images, de-duplication of passports, recognition across photojournalism images, and identification of child exploitation victims.

We support you at every stage of your project.

Building an algorithmic model for image processing requires many steps. It is crucial that our experts intervene at the start of the project to help qualify the data to be collected.

Understanding your needs

Begin by defining the problem you want to solve. What kind of visual data do you need to process? Is it image classification, object detection, or something else?

  • Identify the specific use case and requirements.
  • Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
  • Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Data Collection and Preprocessing

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

  • Gather a diverse dataset of images relevant to your problem.
  • Clean and preprocess the data by resizing, normalizing, and augmenting it.
  • Split the dataset into training, validation, and test sets.

Feature Extraction and Representation

Extract meaningful features from the images. Common techniques include:

  • SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform): Identifies local features like corners or blobs in images.
  • HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients): Captures edge and texture information.
  • CNN (Convolutional Neural Networks): Automatically learns hierarchical features.

Model Selection and Training

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

  • Choose an appropriate model architecture (e.g., CNN, ResNet, VGG).
  • Train the model using the training data.
  • Optimize hyperparameters (learning rate, batch size, etc.).

Post-Processing and Deployment

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

  • Evaluate the model’s performance on the validation set.
  • Apply post-processing steps to refine the model’s predictions.
  • Deploy the model in your desired environment (cloud, edge device, etc.).

Real-World Testing and Monitoring

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

  • Test the model on real-world data.
  • Monitor its performance and make adjustments as needed.
  • Keep refining the model based on user feedback and new data.
