You can customize the FaceLivenessDetector component's appearance using the ThemeProvider in Amplify UI for React. To modify the colors and create a less intense visual experience, you would need to wrap the FaceLivenessDetector in a ThemeProvider and define a custom theme.
Here's how you can approach this:
- Wrap your FaceLivenessDetector in a ThemeProvider
- Create a theme object with customized colors
- Apply this theme to attenuate the intensity of the feedback colors
For example:
import React from 'react'; import { FaceLivenessDetector } from '@aws-amplify/ui-react-liveness'; import { Theme, ThemeProvider, useTheme } from '@aws-amplify/ui-react'; export function CustomizedLivenessDetector() { const [showLiveness, setShowLiveness] = React.useState(false); const { tokens } = useTheme(); React.useEffect(() => { setShowLiveness(true); }, []); const theme = { name: 'Attenuated Face Liveness Theme', tokens: { colors: { brand: { primary: { // Use more muted colors here '10': { /* muted color value */ }, '80': { /* muted color value */ }, '90': { /* muted color value */ }, '100': { /* muted color value */ }, }, }, // Other color customizations }, }, }; return ( <ThemeProvider theme={theme}> {showLiveness && ( <FaceLivenessDetector sessionId={'sessionId'} region={'us-east-1'} onAnalysisComplete={async () => {}} /> )} </ThemeProvider> ); }
It's worth noting that there may be limitations to how much you can customize the feedback colors, as some aspects of the liveness detection process might have specific color requirements for security and accuracy reasons. The documentation suggests that certain modifications are discouraged as they can affect the security and accuracy of the Face Liveness check.
If you're specifically concerned about accessibility for users sensitive to bright colors, you might want to consider providing an alternative option or warning before initiating the liveness check.

Thanks again for the suggestions. I have already implemented an accessibility warning to inform users about the visual feedback during the liveness check.
However, I would still like to know if there are any other technical approaches or workarounds (even if they're not officially supported) that could help attenuate or reduce the intensity of the feedback colors rendered by the AWS Liveness SDK on the live video—beyond the ThemeProvider or CSS filters.
If anyone has found a custom solution, browser setting, accessibility tool, or any creative method that helps make the color feedback less intense for sensitive users (even partially), I would really appreciate any guidance, examples, or experiences.
Thank you in advance!
