Learn to implement offline, real-time liveness detection in Android apps using a custom TensorFlow Lite model, enabling secure face recognition without paid services.
Import and run the real-time face recognition app with the upcoming liveness detection feature, using starter code from GitHub, registering faces, and testing on a real Android device.
Register faces by detecting, cropping, and storing face embeddings with names in a database, then recognize new images by comparing embeddings and computing distances.
Explore how the app displays live camera footage in an Android app using the camera connection fragment and Camera2 API, including permission handling and fragment-based UI in the main activity.
Add the Google ML Kit face detection library, initialize an accurate detector with landmarks and classification disabled, and process each live camera frame to obtain face bounding boxes.
Load Facenet and mobile Facenet TensorFlow Lite models from assets to enable real-time face recognition. Crop detected faces, run recognition, and display the recognized name on screen.
Display recognized faces by drawing rectangles and showing names for each detected face using the Multibox tracker, after processing face recognition results in Android.
Learn how to register new faces in an Android face recognition app: enable register mode, capture the cropped face embedding, and save the name with its embedding in the database.
Integrate liveness detection in Android by loading a TensorFlow Lite model from assets and initializing a liveness detector with a 0.5 spoof threshold.
Pass the cropped face to the 224×224 tflite liveness model. Read the 0–1 output to classify live versus spoof and set the name to spoof when not live.
Test real-time liveness and spoof detection on Android, confirming the app recognizes ID cards and driving licenses as spoofs and demonstrates the system works.
TensorFlow Lite enables on-device machine learning by using the converter to turn models into TF Lite format and loading them with the interpreter on Android and iOS.
Initialize a liveness detector in the main activity by passing context, model path, and spoof threshold, then load the TensorFlow Lite model and create an interpreter from a ByteBuffer.
Preprocess the face to a 224 by 224 bitmap for liveness detection. Convert to a 4d array, run tflite model, and apply a 0.5 threshold to distinguish real from spoof.
Build Android AI Security Apps That Companies Pay For
Security-focused mobile apps are among the highest-paid and most in-demand apps today
