+6  Q: 

Is there any open technology to recognize face features?

I need to make baby face depending on parents' photos. Something like: http://www.makemebabies.com/

It may be not very advanced and may just try to recognize, for example, eyes from constant set of eyes variants in database. The main feature is to set up it at own server.

Is there any open-source or not-so-expensive solutions?

+6  A: 

Check out OpenCV.

Open-source: Yes
Not-so-expensive: Yes

not-so-expensive as in free? :)

Man. The only thing more amazing than needing to do this with OSS in the first place is the fact that there is actually OSS in existence that *does* it. And it makes me feel a very small cog in these internets indeed.

I've seen that. Nedd to take a closer look to decide if it fits my needs

Oh! [This](http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596516130) may come in handy.

@nico: Not-so-expensive as in the least it could cost ever, free. And free in all senses of the word indeed. ;)

Did you decide upon anything?
