Howdy – Windows Hello style facial authentication for Linux

This isn't "Windows Hello style." This program extracts features from a 2d image instead of doing depth reconstruction first. This makes it easy to fool with a piece of paper.

Also this only handles user authentication unlike on Windows where it can be usedpasskey. disk encryption and for passkeys.

Edit: This program also saves the landmarks of your face into a file in plain text when it gets added.

yeah its more of a taster demo. I wish them luck in developing it properly though... I'm doing an ubuntu MOE for a corp atm and man, I really miss the windows hello logins.

Is 'Hello' and those kind of biometrics generally enabled at $CORP? The ones I've gigged at have been the polar opposite of using it, due to regulatroy requirements. Even disabling macos fingerprint reader company-wide, which is prerry darn good imho.
