I'm trying to get the pitch / yaw / roll of a face in an image using the Vision framework but always get 0 for all values. Images should be very easy to process (mostly forward looking portraits).

I've successfully got these values by using Amazon Rekognition on them, so the images themselves aren't the issue. (I need to do a batch of about 70,000 so using rekogniton for them all will get expensive and slow.)

This is the request code:

let faceLandmarksRequest = VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest(completionHandler: handleRectangles)

let requestHandler = VNImageRequestHandler(cgImage: cgImage!, orientation: CGImagePropertyOrientation.right ,options: [:])

do {
    try requestHandler.perform([faceLandmarksRequest])
} catch {
    print(error)
}

And here's the handler code:

func handleRectangles(request: VNRequest, errror: Error?) {

    guard let observations = request.results as? [VNFaceObservation] else {
        fatalError("unexpected result type!")
    }

    for face in observations {

        print("\(face.yaw))") // always zero

    }
}

Any help appreciated :)
