Abstract

We propose an intelligent easy-operating human-machine interface incorporating face detection technology for a mobile multimedia terminal. We have developed a face detection algorithm which works on the resources of a mobile phone. This algorithm is robust in outside fields, and simultaneously works with MPEG-4 Simple Profile Level 1 encoding and decoding on an MPEG-4 codec LSI for a mobile videophone. This enables more intelligent interfaces in visual communication such as IMT-2000 videophone services.
