LG Detects 16 Faces,How about You?

abgsedapmalam

Our Belgian friend Ellen spotted this new LG poster in the wild, and gracefully decided to share it with us. At first I haven’t noticed anything interesting about it, but luckily I was patient enough to read the bottom line before I ditched the photo. It says something about LG phones being able to detect up to 16 faces in one shot. Then I inspected the little phone icon, and noticed there are at least 16 hidden faces present in this perspective! Boy was I surprised! Apart from 5 obvious people and a picture on the wall, try and spot as many hidden faces you can. I’ll start by pointing out the branches in the window. Could it be a reference to our widgets icon? The one we borrowed from Sandra Bullock’s Premonition? I’ll let you find the other ones… Be sure to open the picture in full-size, and then you can check the little phone icon in the footer when you’re stuck! Please, no more than one answer per comment, so other can have some fun too…

  A few corrections,
  Five people, 5 faces
  Correction, the reflection is a head not a face. Brian was right. His number 19 stated, “the outline that the man and the women make standing by the bookcase,” this is number 6
  Tree branches, 7
  Lamps (2) 8 & 9
  Fireplace 10
  End table Pedestal 11
  *** Flowers on painting of the woman’s back, 12 (Good Job, Roop.)
  I must now disagree with Leon, while the LG logo is a face it is not part of the photo. Leon, it was still a great guess.
  In my first count I totally forgot to count the printing of the women. Duh! She is my # 13
  Fireplace (2 on Mantle) 14 & 15
  Books on bookcase lower left, 16

  This is currently my desktop background. Well done. It’s not that easy to find the faces, but I like a good challenge.

  Here are a few hints for the others – then you will see the many many more
  1. man on couch, middle of lower leg, face in pants facing bookshelf.
  2. just below his right shoulder, folds in the suit are a face looking up mouth above elbow.
  3. besides the shadow of the man in the bookcase, there is a full man’s face facing straight out with the eyes as the two whitish areas near the top of the shadow and the knose the middle ligher area.
  4. the flower face is actually, I believe, a rendition of a famous painting, with the light branches as the eye.
  5. at the top of the window there is a man’s face that is looking a bit up and right, eyes are about 1 valence width below the valence.
  6. there is another face behind the pole in the window just below that one.
  7. There is another face, large about 2/3 the length of the curtain triangle on the left side, with the frowning mouth being the one lone branch that stops in the middle
  8. once you find that one, reorganize your thoughts because that is the eyebrow of a female face facing left with the dark spot below being the eyeball and the nose behind the main branch. Many other faces in the window
  9. the actual woman in the picture is almost kissing a man’s face that is in the top corner of the picture.
  10. her back where the lamp light crosses is the midpoint of a face mouth towards the lamp hairline about at her backbone.
  11. there are two more full faces in her back
  12. everyone notes the fire face, but if youlook above that face, there is a charlton heston like face facing down a bit, one eye is the dark spot just above the devils e;ye, the nose is the devil’s ear. there are two more big faces in the fire
  13, there is a nice black shirted figure in the bottom right corrner of the fireplace there is a bar that is almost pointing at his nose and mouth.
  Some to contemplate. The top loop of hair in the mantle picture is one eye, the very bottom is another eye and there is a non human face sideways in her hair.
  14. there is another little face at the edge of the window where the second semicircle of dark above the couch, facing the man on the couch.
  15. There is a face in the bow of hair of the girl by the window facing back and away from here eyes as whitish bow
  16. I believe that the recling female has a face on the left knww with the skirt making the two eyes
  ready for the hard ones?

  I’m surprised there weren’t more false positives. Our brains are wire to find faces, so we tend to find them just about everywhere.

  I spotted all 16 the LG had plus one more it did not spot making 17!
  Check the moulding above the left woman’s head!
  The LG phone does not include the man’s reflection either so if you include that there are 18.
  The obscure one the camera detects is a face made from light to dark ratio with the man and cabinet, his elbow sticking out is the nose!

  Clever picture.
  Stupid ad!
  Who wants a camera that focuses on bookshelfs and trees in the background? And it seems incapable of finding smiling faces too…

  Hi, I have looked at this photo briefly and stopped after I found over twenty alone in the fire. Enlarge page if you need to, to know more than 150 percent. There are actually over 50 faces in this photo easily found and possibly 100 faces. Keep looking.
