DV Lottery Photo

The tool analyzes a user-provided image to verify DV lottery photo compliance. It enforces a 600x600 pixel JPEG with a plain white background, a frontal pose, and neutral expression. It also checks head height relative to image height (roughly 50–69%), absence of shadows, and no obstructions or hats. Conceptually, the system detects facial features, estimates pose, and evaluates background quality, then proposes an exact 600x600 crop that centers the face while preserving required margins. Beneficiaries include applicants, photo studios, and legal professionals who need objective, repeatable validation before submission. Unique value lies in automated, rule-based cropping and a reproducible compliance report that reduces guesswork and submission errors. Core features include pixel-dimension validation, background whiteness assessment, head-size calculation, frontal pose detection, and an export-ready 600x600 JPEG. Use cases include pre-submission checks, studio batch processing, and client-ready reports for immigration advisors.
