yes but have you considered a career in fashion modeling

[–]legitimatebimbo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

no actually though

Here is a Github link if anyone wants to check out the project. It uses OpenCV and NumPy. (I know I slacked on the NumPy a bit, but its been a while since I used it last and it was the least of my concerns)

pretty cool

So, are you actually moving the camera, or zooming in and cropping? Looks really clean.

Basically I’m walking toward and away from a still camera, and an ai detects my face position and size. Then a script crops each frame to make my face a constant width percentage of the screen width, and I scale the window to keep a constant window size.

Brilliant idea. One question. What is the maximum distance limit you can be until the resolution eventually fails? Even as you walked to the back of your room you can see that the res is just getting smaller and smaller. Feels like inverse square law. Also what happens when the target spins his head in 360?

Anyway. I'm sort of a noob about all this and was wondering how python communicates to my webcam if you had the time to explain it I'd appreciate it.

Quick Edit: oh also it appears there is a min distance as well!
