Minimum video quality for facial recognition I am currently working on a small project where I am trying to automate some stuff at home. I am building a model capable of identifying my face with OpenCV. This will be a live feed.
I am making the project's estimations and have a really low budget. Therefore I am trying to identify what could be the minimum quality video feed I can pass to my algorithm to identify any face. For now I am just trying to identify mine.
I understand facial recognition works primarily on the unique pattern that could be found in the face. What is the minimum video resolution I need to identify anyone with facial recognition?
On page 2 of Axis' web page Identification and Recognition there is an estimate of the minimum number of pixels needed for identification, recognition and detection.
