edit: by the definition you seem to be going on, any facial recognition is also OCR, since you could consider a face a 'glyph' (edit: 'symbol'). The only 'text' thing here that I can see is that it is intended to be used on text, which lends some optimizations, nothing that it's actually text-based in any way.
If you make a font out of faces and use them as repeated glyphs then yes it's OCR. If you're not using identical symbols over and over than I don't think you have a sane definition of 'glyph'.

Does it produce ASCII? UTF? If no, it's not OCR.
