Architecture

Frontend

  • Tauri: Enables building the desktop application
  • React: Used for creating the user interface
  • Rust: Powers the backend, which the frontend communicates with through Tauri's API

Backend (Python)

  • FastAPI: Serves as the API framework
  • SQLite: Database for storing metadata and embeddings
  • YOLO: Used for object detection
  • FaceNet: Generates face embeddings
  • ONNX Runtime: Runs the models efficiently
  • DBSCAN: Performs clustering for face embeddings

Backend (Rust via Tauri)

Handles file system operations and provides a secure bridge between the frontend and local system.

Features

  • Smart tagging of photos based on detected objects, faces, and their recognition
  • Traditional gallery features of album management
  • Advanced image analysis with object detection and facial recognition
  • Privacy-focused design with offline functionality
  • Efficient data handling and parallel processing
  • Smart search and retrieval
  • Cross-platform compatibility
