Raspberry Pi Awesome

Most update to date guide is here

The goal of this repo is to have simple, easy-to-use scripts to get a Raspberry Pi ready for all kinds of awesome like:

• Face Recognition,
• OpenCV
• dlib
• Django
• and more

Suggestions / Requirements

• Are you comfortable with terminal? If not, this is probably not for you.
• Raspbian Stretch Installed. Here's a guide we made to install it as well as set it up on your local network: Guide here.
• Do you have a USB Web Camera? I use this one <- affiliate link (non-affiliate)
• You could also use the Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2 (affiliate link)

These scripts may work with other versions of Linux (specifically Debian) but we haven't tested. Have you? Please let us know.

Install OpenCV

Time: Up to 3 hours.

$ cd ~/
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/codingforentrepreneurs/Raspberry-Pi-Awesome/master/scripts/setup-opencv.sh  && chmod +x setup-opencv.sh && sudo ./setup-opencv.sh

Install Dlib & Face Recognition

Time: Up to 1.5 hours. Recommend: OpenCV already installed to fully make use of Face Recognition

$ cd ~/
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/codingforentrepreneurs/Raspberry-Pi-Awesome/master/scripts/setup-face-recognition.sh  && chmod +x setup-face-recognition.sh && sudo ./setup-face-recognition.sh
