📚 Introduction

react-native-vision-camera-face-detector is a React Native library that integrates with the Vision Camera module to provide face detection functionality. It allows you to easily detect faces in real-time using the front camera and visualize the detected faces on the screen.

If you like this package please give it a ⭐ on GitHub.

🏗️ Features

• Real-time face detection using front camera
• Integration with Vision Camera library
• Adjustable face visualization with customizable styles
• Base64 frame convertion

🧰 Installation

yarn add react-native-vision-camera-face-detector

Then you need to add react-native-worklets-core plugin to babel.config.js. More details here.

💡 Usage

Recommended way:

import { 
  StyleSheet, 
  Text, 
  View 
} from 'react-native'
import { 
  useEffect, 
  useState,
  useRef
} from 'react'
import {useCameraDevice} from 'react-native-vision-camera'
import {
  Camera,
  DetectionResult,
  FaceDetectionOptions
} from 'react-native-vision-camera-face-detector'
import { Worklets } from 'react-native-worklets-core'

export default function App() {
  const faceDetectionOptions = useRef<FaceDetectionOptions>( {
    // detection options
  } ).current

  const device = useCameraDevice('front')

  useEffect(() => {
    (async () => {
      const status = await Camera.requestCameraPermission()
      console.log({ status })
    })()
  }, [device])

  const handleFacesDetection = Worklets.createRunInJsFn( (
    result: DetectionResult
  ) => { 
    console.log( 'detection result', result )
  })

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      {!!device? <Camera
        style={StyleSheet.absoluteFill}
        device={device}
        faceDetectionCallback={ handleFacesDetection }
        faceDetectionOptions={ faceDetectionOptions }
      /> : <Text>
        No Device
      </Text>}
    </View>
  )
}

Or default way:

import { 
  StyleSheet, 
  Text, 
  View 
} from 'react-native'
import { 
  useEffect, 
  useState,
  useRef
} from 'react'
import {
  Camera,
  useCameraDevice,
  useFrameProcessor
} from 'react-native-vision-camera'
import { 
  useFaceDetector,
  DetectionResult,
  FaceDetectionOptions
} from 'react-native-vision-camera-face-detector'
import { Worklets } from 'react-native-worklets-core'

export default function App() {
  const faceDetectionOptions = useRef<FaceDetectionOptions>( {
    // detection options
  } ).current

  const device = useCameraDevice('front')
  const { detectFaces } = useFaceDetector( faceDetectionOptions )

  useEffect(() => {
    (async () => {
      const status = await Camera.requestCameraPermission()
      console.log({ status })
    })()
  }, [device])

  const handleFacesDetection = Worklets.createRunInJsFn( (
    result: DetectionResult
  ) => { 
    console.log( 'detection result', result )
  })
  const frameProcessor = useFrameProcessor((frame) => {
    'worklet'
    const result = detectFaces( {
      frame
    })
    // do something with frame ...
    handleFacesDetection(result)

    // or
    detectFaces( {
      frame,
      callback: handleFacesDetection
    } )
  }, [handleFacesDetection])

  return (
    <View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      {!!device? <Camera
        style={StyleSheet.absoluteFill}
        device={device}
        frameProcessor={frameProcessor}
      /> : <Text>
        No Device
      </Text>}
    </View>
  )
}

OBS: Returned face bounds, landmarks and contours are now natively downscaled to screen size. No extra function needed.

See example app for more details.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Here is a common issue when trying to use this package and how you can try to fix it:

• Regular javascript function cannot be shared. Try decorating the function with the 'worklet' keyword...:
  • If you're using react-native-reanimated maybe you're missing this step.

If you find other errors while using this package you're wellcome to open a new issue or create a PR with the fix.
