FujiFilm has developed the “F-NEXT IMAGE VIEWER” portable photo viewer which included a new image searching function called “Face Search.” The images of faces stored inside the hard drive can be recognized by the software.

Although a similar technology for PCs exists already, FujiFilm said this technology has been developed to face-search a large volume of pictures PC-less. While it can search for patterns other than faces, FujiFilm’s point of view is “people occur most commonly in family pictures,” so the face searching is key.
