“Guess Who?”: Take Your DAM to the Next Level with Face Recognition!

DAM solutions provider MediaValet have recently announced the launch of facial recognition for their platform.  The new feature allows users to manually tag an individual in any given image, after which the AI then automatically tags all assets that contain the same person.  This facilitates a number of new search methods: Category, which finds images that feature a specific person in a specific context; Face, which can locate all images that contain a certain face; and Global, which searches all images that all have been auto- tagged with a person’s name.  By default, facial recognition features are only accessible to authorised users, but any users or groups can be given access.
