Facial Recognition with Picasa 3.5

by nauman on September 22, 2009

picasa_logo-1 The new Picasa 3.5 has facial recognition features built in to it, quite similar to the Picasa Web Albums launched some moons ago. This simply means that users now will be identified by the software according to their facial features or quite simply faces (makes me wonder what Picasa will do to photos of identical twins, guess we need to try this :-) ). The software scans your collection of photos and separates those having similar faces, these can then be assigned names in one go by the users. An easier way could be to make small albums of two to three persons, assign them names and then let Picasa do the job of scanning your hard disk and grouping  photos according to the faces. Picasa 3.5 also has geo-tagging with Google-maps built in to the application. This makes it easy to  drag and drop pics on to the locations where they were snapped. Google Earth can also be used if the user desires so. Other features include bulk importing, uploading and sharing besides tagging in bulk. Download link….http://picasa.google.com/
