Face Landmark Detection — 468 Points Real-time | Skycally

Detect and visualize 468 facial landmarks in real-time using MediaPipe Face Mesh. Works with photos or live camera. Free, browser-based, no signup.

Upload a photo or use your camera to detect detailed facial landmarks in real-time. The AI maps 468 precise points across the face including eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jaw and cheekbones — with no signup and no upload to any server.

Face landmark detection is used in augmented reality, facial analysis, emotion recognition and 3D face modeling. Our tool uses MediaPipe Face Mesh, a model originally developed by Google Research, running entirely in your browser via WebAssembly — no facial data is stored or transmitted anywhere.

468 points is a dense enough mesh to capture subtle expressions and precise facial geometry, which is why this same underlying technology powers many real-world AR filters (like those on Instagram and Snapchat), virtual try-on tools, and face-tracking features in video call apps. Toggling between the raw dot overlay and the connected mesh view makes it easy to see exactly how the model segments the face into regions.

Because detection runs up to 4 faces per frame, this tool also works for group photos, not just solo portraits. Everything happens client-side, so it's a safe way to experiment with facial landmark technology on personal photos without any privacy concern about where that image data ends up.
