Simple program written in python for face detection using OpenCV
We will be using haar cascade classifier .
Can read more about it at http://docs.opencv.org/trunk/d7/d8b/tutorial_py_face_detection.html
1. Open a terminal in the directory of this repo
2. Run python face_detect.py
A window will open accessing your webcam and a green box will appear around your face.
Only works for the front face . New classifier can be trained to increase its efficiency to detect the face at different angles and orientation.
