Face recognition

Forgive me if this is a repost from somewhere, but I thought this was a really neat website.

Face Recognition

You upload a photo from your desktop and it will scan the faces for key features and give you a celebrity match-up.

I used the picture of Lang/Ugz and I from the photo album... and apparently my face was a 63% match with Whitney Houston....

:ugh:

Still trying to figure that one out. Other matches that weren't as 'close' were Courtney Cox, Hillary Duff, Gillian Anderson, Meryl Streep, and a couple others down to a 51% match with Jodie Foster.

Lang's was matched up the closest to John Carmack (63%), but George Bush Sr., William Shatner, and Gwyneth Paltrow were also on the list. :rofl:




Anyway, it's really cool to see, and it only takes a minute or two, so I thought it'd be neat for you guys to play around with.

Did you try to run a different photo? Maybe it wasn't sharp enough or for whatever reason it couldn't scan it. One of my friends had a similar problem until they picked a different photo to upload.


And there should be at least *one* person you match up on. With my matches, I don't really look like any one of them, but I could see similiarities in the way my mouth is shaped, or my eyes, or my nose, or my eyebrows.. etc.
