Media Vision Facial Landmark Detection

Facial landmark detection.

Required Header

#include <mv_facial_landmark.h>

Overview

Media Vision Facial Landmark Detection contains mv_facial_landmark_h handle to perform facial landmark detection. Facial landmark handle should be created with mv_facial_landmark_create() and destroyed with mv_facial_landmark_destroy(). mv_facial_landmark_h should be configured by calling mv_facial_landmark_configure(). After configuration, mv_facial_landmark_h should be prepared by calling mv_facial_landmark_prepare() which loads models and set required parameters. After preparation, mv_facial_landmark_inference() or mv_facial_landmark_inference_async() can be called to detect facial landmarks in images on mv_source_h. Use mv_facial_landmark_get_result_count() to get the number of results and mv_facial_landmark_get_position() to get the position of each landmark.

Function Documentation

Configures the backend for the facial landmark inference.

Since :
9.0
Parameters:
[in]handleThe handle to the inference
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NONESuccessful
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTEDNot supported
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_INVALID_OPERATIONInvalid operation
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORYOut of memory

Creates a inference handle for facial landmark object.

Use this function to create a inference handle. After the creation the facial landmark task has to be prepared with mv_facial_landmark_prepare() function to prepare a network for the inference.

Since :
9.0
Remarks:
The handle should be released using mv_facial_landmark_destroy().
Parameters:
[out]handleThe handle to the inference to be created.
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NONESuccessful
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTEDNot supported
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_INTERNALInternal Error

 mv_facial_landmark_destroy(handle);
See also:
mv_facial_landmark_destroy()
mv_facial_landmark_prepare()

Destroys inference handle and releases all its resources.

Since :
9.0
Parameters:
[in]handleThe handle to the inference to be destroyed.
Returns:
0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
Return values:
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NONESuccessful
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTEDNot supported
MEDIA_VISION_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETERInvalid parameter
Precondition:

mv_facial_landmark_create()
int mv_facial_landmark_get_position ( mv_facial_landmark_h  handle,
unsigned int  index,
unsigned int *  pos_x,
unsigned int *  pos_y 
)

Gets the facial landmark position values to a given index.

Since :
9.0
Remarks:
pos_x and pos_y arrays are allocated internally by the framework and will remain valid until the handle is released. Please do not deallocate them directly, and if you want to use them after the handle is released, please copy them to user memory and use the copy.

This function operates differently depending on the inference request method.

Additionally, after calling the mv_facial_landmark_inference_async() function, the function operates in asynchronous mode until the handle is released.
