Hey everybody,

Lately I was considering Linux but I'm not sure if face recognition is supported. My laptop has an Intel realsense f200. Is there any support?

Thanks!

Edit: I want it for log in

Take a look at Howdy, like finger print it wont allow full access but once you log in at first boot you should be able to lock and log back in using your face or other bio-metric.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
