This paper proposes a new measurement method of face region size for real-time serveillance systems. The proposed method consists of three steps. In the first step, it detects global face area based on the block-based difference images. In the second step, it measures the face region size using face color information. In the third step, it estimates the face position in the next input image using the trajectory of face regions. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm measures the face size within 20％ relative error on average, which is a]towable for most surveillance systems.
