Nowadays, All proprietary software companies (like apple,microsoft) have included face detection in their image viewers(Iphoto,Live Photo Gallery) . It is quite a useful feature. Cant we include this in kde too?

I think this would fit more in Digikam as it is more photo oriented than Gwenview.

I totally agree with dpalacio, I was just about to say that.

It would be nice however to see this integrated with Nepomuk and functionality supplied trough Kipi Plugins, so that every KDE image viewer could profit from this.

Could it be also used to log in ? or is it out of the scope of the idea?

That is idea is about face detection (determining that the picture contains a face), logging in would require face recognition (figuring out who the face belongs to).


Besides, there is already an idea about face recognition for login:

You cann add a Nepomuk-tag for each face. Of course face-recognition would be useful (imagine automatic tagging) but also very expensive and complicate.

There is a GSOC project for this for Digikam. Actually it is face recognition, but that implies face detection as well:
