Hi there. thanks for this cool library. i was wondering if it is possible to track facial features with this library. if not, could anyone suggest a way to get started? i know that i can get the haar cascades from opencv for eyes and other features and use those. i'm just not clear on how to actually integrate with this lib. thanks!

I can't help you very much, but I'm curious as to what you're trying to do by tracking facial features.

gad2103 commented 9 years ago

I want to use facial expressions to control a synth.

I think clmtrackr does what you want to do: https://github.com/auduno/clmtrackr

That would be awesome. I haven't seen facial expression recognition implemented using standard laptop/tablet webcams. I imagine you'd need good lighting at least and the higher resolution your camera the better. I'd love to see something like that.
