Description

Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone has experience wrapping the face_recognition project in a web API. Specifically, I'm a .NET application developer and I'm looking to implement face recognition functionality in a web application. I would like to capture an image from a camera and use an API to recognize and compare faces.

Are there any existing open-source projects that provide a web API wrapper for the face_recognition library? If so, could you please recommend one to me?

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Research direction

The issue asks whether an open-source web API wrapper exists for the face_recognition project and mentions a .NET web application, but it names no files, tests, or implementation entry point. Research existing wrapper projects and clarify the desired API scope before defining what completion would mean.
