With the rapid development of embedded technology, mobile devices have been widely used than before. Face recognition has also been taken as a key application with PCA as the basic algorithm. Though PCA can provide basic information processing, it still has some problems to be used for mobile devices. The movement of the faces increases the difficulty of the recognition and the limited resources of mobile devices propose more constraints to traditional PCA algorithm. A novel approach is presented to optimize PCA based face recognition for better performance and faster recognition speed. The experiments show that the new approach can achieve its target though the optimization.
