        ## About This Service
        
        This facial recognition system uses **Google's MediaPipe Face Mesh**, providing:
        
        - **High Precision**: 478 3D facial landmarks per face
        - **Fast Processing**: Optimized for real-time performance
        - **Robust Detection**: Works with various angles and lighting
        - **Privacy-Focused**: All processing happens in your session
        
        ### How It Works
        
        1. **Face Detection**: Locates faces in uploaded images using MediaPipe
        2. **Landmark Extraction**: Identifies 478 precise facial points in 3D space
        3. **Embedding Generation**: Converts landmarks to a feature vector
        4. **Similarity Comparison**: Compares embeddings using cosine similarity
        5. **Threshold Filtering**: Returns matches above the confidence threshold
        
        ### Technology Stack
        
        - **Face Detection**: MediaPipe Face Detection
        - **Feature Extraction**: MediaPipe Face Mesh (478 landmarks)
        - **Embedding**: 1434-dimensional vector (478 points × 3 coords)
        - **Similarity**: Cosine similarity metric
        - **Computing**: CPU-optimized (no GPU required)
        
        ### Use Cases
        
        - Identity verification systems
        - Photo organization and deduplication
        - Access control applications
        - Face matching in databases
        - Attendance tracking systems
        
        ### Performance
        
        - **Build Time**: Fast (~2-3 minutes)
        - **Processing Speed**: ~0.5-1 second per image
        - **Memory Usage**: Low (~500MB)
        - **Accuracy**: High for frontal faces, good for various angles
        
        ### Advantages vs Other Methods
        
        | Feature | MediaPipe | dlib | InsightFace |
        |---------|-----------|------|-------------|
        | Build Time | ✅ Fast | ❌ Slow | ⚠️ Medium |
        | Dependencies | ✅ Minimal | ❌ Heavy | ⚠️ Medium |
        | CPU Performance | ✅ Excellent | ⚠️ Good | ⚠️ Good |
        | HF Spaces | ✅ Works | ❌ Build fails | ⚠️ Complex |
