Can I use the library with "offline" image?

[romshiri]

Hi,

I'd like to run face(s) detection in a given image (that was selected from the image gallery for example).

1. Can I do it?
2. Can it support multiple faces in a given image?

1. Yes.
2. Yes.

The library does not require Internet connection or Play Services.

Hi @dmitry-zaitsev, thank you so much for the quick response.

I see that the function named "detectFaces" should receive an image in NV21 format.
As I said, I'd like to run face detection on a simple image that was loaded from the photos gallery.

How do I convert the image (which is basically just a path for a local image), into an NV21 bytes array?
I don't have any experience with image processing etc, so perhaps you can help me with your experience.
