Face and Product Learning
You can personalize your OrCam MyEye device by teaching it to recognize faces
and products that you frequently use. This can assist you when you need to
identify people and products at home, while shopping, and more. These features
are not available on the OrCam MyReader.
Once a face is learned, the device will continuously search for the face and
attempt to recognize it (even if the person is viewed from a different angle or has
changed hairstyle). When the camera and the face are not directed at each other,
when a person is wearing sunglasses, or during nighttime, face recognition may
not work.
Note:
If a face is not recognized repeatedly, it is possible that the conditions are
different than what they were when the face was learned. Performing Face
Learning of the same person under these new conditions would allow the device
to better recognize the face in the future. For example, if a person puts on
sunglasses, performing new face-learning would allow the device to recognize
this person with sunglasses, too.
