[QUOTE]Originally posted by Cartman: [QB] So. Not to discourage you or anything, but 3D image recognition is still only in its infancy - the good folks over in AI #101 have basically been struggling with this (well, minus the attendance issue) problem for twenty years and even they, in all their combined wisdom, haven't cracked the nut yet. I'd start praying for some divine inspiration if I were you. B) Anyway, what you're proposing would involve enough programming for ten CS projects. To mathematically describe a human face (which would be your first order of business) you'd have to write dedicated software that could convert a bunch of digicam inputs of your fellow worshipper to a wireframe surface and then break up that surface into smaller chunks of triangles (assuming you don't want to invest in a supercomputer to run your program) and then do a vertex-by-vertex comparison with a mesh already in your church's database (to name one popular technique) and correct for mesh deformation (something as simple as a facial expression can throw off your algorithms and fuck up the wrong person's afterlife) and take into account perspective distortions and a host of other pesky optical effects that could spell someone's doom if not filtered out - in short, the level of complexity would be way over your head alone.
