CyberLink’s MediaShow photo management package has just released version 5 with a new popular feature, face detection. Just like Apple’s iPhoto, it can now identify faces within photos to allow you to easily search for all photos containing a specific individual. Unlike iPhoto, however, it uses NVidia’s CUDA technology to accelerate the process.
CyberLink MediaShow 5 searches and organizes your photo collection using a sophisticated face recognition algorithm. By utilizing co-processing – which leverages the massive parallel processing power of NVIDIA GeForce GPUs in tandem with the computer’s central processor (CPU) – CyberLink MediaShow 5 provides up to a 70%(1) improvement in application speed so you can find the photos you want faster.
