Introduction

------------

Face detection and tracking are used to observe the tiny variations

in skin tone that result from the increased blood flow after a heart beat.

By averaging, filtering and Fourier-transforming these variations the heart

rate is estimated and graphed.

Multiple persons in the scene are analysed simultaneously.

Installation

------------

::

    pip3 install heartwave

Usage

-----
