This information is included in the UI, filters, as well as in notifications. -Frigate has support for FaceNet to create face embeddings, which runs locally. Embeddings are then saved to Frigate's database. - -## Minimum System Requirements - -Face recognition works by running a large AI model locally on your system. Systems without a GPU will not run Face Recognition reliably or at all. +Frigate has support for CV2 Local Binary Pattern Face Recognizer to recognize faces, which runs locally. A lightweight face landmark detection model is also used to align faces before running them through the face recognizer. ## Configuration
