📝 Description
I propose adding a feature that enables users to register and recognize known individuals—such as family members, friends, or caretakers—using face and speech recognition.
This enhancement will allow VisionMate to provide real-time audio feedback like:
“John is in front of you.”
This will be especially useful for visually impaired users to identify people around them and interact with greater confidence.
🎯 Key Functionalities
🧠 Face Recognition Detect
- Use the
InsighFace library to detect faces
- Possibly multiple faces
Face Recognition
- Use stored embeddings to check for for similarity in detected faces.
Tests
- Inlclude test for the funtionality
