Process frames on demand instead of real time in JS app

[dabblenz]

Hi, I have an application that runs on a low performance chromebox. I can not reliably run models without using all of the CPU.

I am wondering if I could instead take snapshots from my webcam and process them on demand for facial detection at set points of a users interaction with the application. I only want to determine the age and gender of a user, I don't need real time face detection or tracking.

Do you have any demos or examples of how this can be achieved?

Thank you!

this is very common and actually typical use case, really not sure how explicit of a demo can it be - simply trigger human.detect() whenever YOU want.

then set it as such in config, nothing else.
