Building Smarter Apps: MLKit for Android
summary
ML Kit for Android provides vision and NLP APIs for on-device, offline processing (face detection, barcode scanning, text recognition, object detection, pose and early-access entity extraction), bundled libraries or Play Services delivery, and some custom-model support only for image labeling and object detection. Implementation here uses face detection values (bounding box, contours, landmark probabilities) plus a blink-twice liveness check and a server-side image-compare that returns a similarity score against government ID; result reduces fraud and runs fast on low-end devices. Notes: face comparison is not native, and processing must run off the UI thread.
