Add face detection boost to improve smart cropping

roborourke opened this issue · comments

The smartcrop.js library gets decent results a lot of the time but can be helped by providing areas of an image to 'boost'.

The examples on the website suggest a few libraries for face detaction but they're all client side libraries that rely on the DOM & canvas.

We could use node-opencv to run it against the basic face cascade as an initial experiment.

Closing this as it's not been majorly requested
