Facial Tracking

Our VideoEffects application, built to showcase our tracking code, uses a live webcam. To apply effects to a face or faces, check the appropriate boxes and click the button. Effects include: hat, mustache, Groucho Marx glasses, yellow glasses, panda, blur, and Face Swap. The last will choose a random other face from the image and place it over the selected face. To delete all effects from a checked face, hit the recycle button. To put boxes around all current faces, with their ID numbers attached, click the numbers button at the bottom, and click it again to remove these boxes.

Our PhotoEffects application (shown below) works much the same way, but with a previously chosen screenshot. This application does not have the option to remove previously added effects.

For a demonstration of our VideoEffects application in action, see below:.
