Management wanted to roll out a new software product using the newly released Android FaceDetection API. As a middleware engineer, I was tapped to develop and benchmark a mobile app on the Android platform. I completed the project in 2 months, and documented my findings related to the features, accuracy and runtime performance in support of assessing the feasibility of the app. The project was a success and my company developed a successful Android app using our in-house custom library of multimedia codecs and face-detection.
