ARFaceDetection

Meet ARFaceDetection by Cleveroad

We’re glad to share with you our latest AR-based library for Android. It’s designed with ARCore technology and is capable of detecting faces and overlaying images above the user’s head considering multiple parameters to make them look realistic (e.g. head movements).

You can try the functionality of the library right on your devices! Go to this link to download our application from Google Play Store.
