MulticoreWare joins forces with Melexis for an AI algorithm development. They developed face understanding algorithm modules such as face detection, face recognition, drowsiness/distraction detection and anti-spoofing detection using a Melexis EVK75027 ToF sensor. MulticoreWare enhanced the internal data annotation tool by utilizing distance images to label precise face key points.

Using this information, a custom annotated dataset was created and used to train neural networks for face identification and recognition. The system is able to operate accurately and reliably in diverse illumination settings. The partnership demonstrates the effectiveness of AI using ToF cameras to achieve robust performance for a wide range of in-cabin applications such as driver authentication, drowsiness detection, driver attentiveness, etc.
