Face Detection & Facial Recognition (64-bit only)
- ACDSee’s Face Detection & Facial Recognition tool will find the humans in your photographs so you can name them for quick searching.
- The software will immediately learn which names to put to which faces, and even will suggest possible matches.
- Easily control the queue of images to be scanned for faces.
- Save hours of tedious manual skimming by searching photos by unnamed, auto-named, and suggested names.
- Keep photos distinguished by client, family member, or person of interest, then embed face data in your photos for safe keeping.
- NEW! Import face data from Lightroom and Picasa and save the effort of renaming everyone in your images. Facial Recognition will then find any matching faces in your ACDSee database.

ACDSee Light EQ™
This patented technology in ACDSee Photo Studio makes it possible to adjust lighting in specific areas in images without affecting others. You can simultaneously lighten areas that are too dark, and darken areas that are too bright. If the foreground subject is backlit, you can easily lighten that subject up without blowing out the background.
Improved ACDSee Mobile Sync
With ACDSee Mobile Sync, you can wirelessly and instantly send photos and videos directly to ACDSee Photo Studio from your mobile device! Simply scan the QR code on your screen with your phone to easily sync with your computer. Available on iPhone and Android, the ACDSee Mobile Sync app keeps track of which photos have been sent, so you don’t have to.
