S26: Improve and Finetune the Computer Vision Model

[notzabir]

Description

Real-Time Computer Vision — Go Beyond Face Detection

Upgrades
1. Face Recognition (Not Just Detection)
Use:

• ArcFace

• FaceNet

• DeepFace

This allows:

• Personalized greeting

• Multi-user support

2. Gaze Detection
Detect:

• Is user actually looking at robot?

• Are they distracted?

Look into:

• MediaPipe Face Mesh

• Gaze tracking algorithms

3. Emotion Detection
Use light models:

• FER2013-trained CNN

• DeepFace emotion module

Don’t overinterpret — just soft signal.

Jetson Optimization Resources
Look into:

• TensorRT conversion

• ONNX model conversion

• NVIDIA DeepStream SDK

DeepStream is powerful for:

• Real-time video pipelines

• Hardware acceleration
