libfacedetection

🚀️ Always up-to-date libfacedetection binaries for Raspberry Pi - just download and use it.

Install

The command downloads and installs libfacedetection as a Debian package.

curl -sSLo libfacedetection.deb https://github.com/prepkg/libfacedetection-raspberrypi/releases/latest/download/libfacedetection-aarch64-linux-gnu.deb \
  && sudo apt install -y ./libfacedetection.deb \
  && rm -rf libfacedetection.deb

Why?

No official libfacedetection packages

There are no prebuilt official libfacedetection packages for Raspberry Pi OS, forcing users to compile it from source themselves.

Optimized binaries

libfacedetection is built with NEON optimizations enabled, giving a real performance boost on Raspberry Pi hardware compared to a build without them.

Always up to date

GitHub CI workflows rebuild and publish libfacedetection automatically whenever a new version is released upstream.

No extra dependencies

libfacedetection is built as a static library, so it links directly into your application with no shared library to install or manage at runtime.
