# Python_face_recognition
## Static and Dynamic face recognition tests with Open CV library with Python.

You will find two .py files:

- static.py where faces are found on pictures or videos the user provide. Could be further developed to search for specific faces using a training set of pictures.
- dynamic.py where faces are found on a live webcam video stream.

I warmly suggest you to create a virtual environment before installing the libraries since versioning can cause a lot of conflicts.

Anaconda snippet: python -m conda create --name myenv

I used a specific distro of Open CV:

pip install opencv-contrib-python==4.1.0.25

Probably a fast\more efficient way to perform such tasks could be to install the face_recognition library but since it requires Visual Studio and at the moment I don't have it installed on my machine, I did without it.

The references and learning process in order to create such scriptes are from:
