I am trying to make an app that detect faces and recognizes it. I made Face detection but I want some idea to when making recognition. I'm using a web cam for tracking and it can detect the face.Then I am taking only the part of the face to a new gray image and comparing it using EigenObjectRecognizer with list of images in database.

But it is not giving good results. Some times it find some thing wrong, some times nothing. I want to ask that for comparing photos which additional techniques I must implement? Like Histogram equalization or resolution of faces equalization?

I have an OpenCV Face Recognition (Haar Face Detection + Histogram Equalization + Eigenfaces) tutorial and free source code that you could try: http://www.shervinemami.info/faceRecognition.html
