Abstract

Apple provides dozens of frameworks that you can use rather than write your own code. One of the more interesting frameworks is the Vision framework that can recognize objects in pictures such as faces. At the simplest level, facial recognition can identify the number of faces in a picture. On a more advanced level, facial recognition can also draw rectangles around an image to show exactly where the faces appear in an image. Although facial recognition may not be perfect, it can be accurate enough to give your app extra features that require you to write little additional code on your own.
