About Pittsburgh Pattern Recognition:

Pittsburgh Pattern Recognition (PittPatt) develops software for interpreting
digital photographs and video streams. Its Face Detection and Tracking
Software Development Kit (FT-SDK) can reliably locate human faces in
photographs and track the motion of human faces in video. Face detection and
tracking has applications in security, video compression, automated
photograph annotation, video navigation, people counting, photofinishing and
video-based security.

PittPatt's technology is widely considered to be the world leader in object
detection and tracking, placing first in both the U.S. Intelligence
Community's 2005 ARDA evaluation and a similar international evaluation,
CLEAR, in 2006. This technology has also been exhibited at a number of U.S.
science museums and appeared Wired Magazines's NextFest 2004.

PittPatt was founded in 2004 as a spin-off from Carnegie Mellon University's
Robotics Institute.
