A cool way to implement Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloak using simple Python and OpenCV techniques.

Invisibility-Cloak-Python

Requirements:

Python Libraries

• NumPy
• OpenCV
• time

Physical Requirements:

• Red colored cloth(saturated and solid)

Note: Incase you wish to use a different colored cloth, you would need to change the hsv(hue saturation value) parameters in the code.
I've used a solid red colored cloth. Preferably use pure Red, Green or Blue colors since they are the most saturated options.

How To Use:

• Run the script and wait for around 3-5 seconds without you being in the frame.(To capture the background which we will use later to replace the pixels of cloth.)
• Then, try out the output yourself with your newly cretaed Invisiblity Cloak, just like Harry Potter.
