FACE DETECTION IN IMAGE FILE USING PYTHON

- 
# Face detection in a image file
import cv2

# trained dataset (from github)
trained_dataset = cv2.CascadeClassifier('haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml')

# read image
img = cv2.imread('images/multiface.jpg')

# convert colour img to grayscale img
gray_img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)

# getting values of x-axis, y-axis, width, height
faces = trained_dataset.detectMultiScale(gray_img)
""" print(faces) -> return values of x-axis, y-axis, width, height """

# creating rectangle around the face
for x, y, w, h in faces:
    cv2.rectangle(img, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 0, 255), 2)
    
# show image
cv2.imshow("Face Detected", img)
cv2.waitKey()

MOTION DETECTION AND TRACKING USING OPENCV AND PYTHON

-
In this post, we are going to see how to detect and track movements(simply motion detection and tracking) using the OpenCV module. At first, you need to install the OpenCV-python module, to install the module just open your command prompt and type, pip install OpenCV-python Then hit enter, it will install the module automatically. After installing the module, just import the module and write the basic code to read the video. # import the opencv module import cv2 # capturing video capture = cv2.VideoCapture( "videos/input.mp4" ) After that, we have to get the two frames from the video or webcam and find the difference between the two frames, which is nothing but if there is a movement that occurs between the frames there might be a difference.  So, here we are trying to get the difference using the  cv2.absdiff() function in the OpenCV module and this method takes two parameters which are the two frames. # find difference between two frames diff = cv2.absdiff(img_1 , img_2) T

BASIC HAND TRACKING USING PYTHON

Image
     Basically, the hand tracking is based on the 21 landmarks in 3D with multi-hand support, based on high-performance palm detection and hand landmark model. The 21 hand landmarks will be like,  And, The output will be like this,  Packages to install :  pip install opencv-python. pip install mediapipe. Program :  # Hand Tracking with python import cv2 import mediapipe as mp import time # Capturing video from the web cam video = cv2.VideoCapture( 0 ) # Creating objects for hands mpHands = mp.solutions.hands hands = mpHands.Hands() previousTime = 0 currentTime = 0 while True : success , img = video.read() # Converting BGR image to RGB image RGBimg = cv2.cvtColor(img , cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB) # Getting landmark points and storing in multiHandLandmarks variable result = hands.process(RGBimg) multiHandLandmarks = result.multi_hand_landmarks # This 'if' block will run when it's having the handlandmark points if multiHandLandmarks: for handLand
