Face Detector API

Is there any face detector api in blackberry rim ? Am developing an app that needs that api to detect the face of users based on the in-built camera.

Please use plain text.

Re: Face Detector API

Simon is correct, there is facial detection on BB10, but not BB7.

No, there is no text recognition library built into BB7.
