Dependencies
============
Install dependecies::
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Usage
=====
First of all you have to train face recognizer how your face looks like.
Then you can test it with demo command.
Training
========
::
$ python3 facerecognition/main.py train
This command will take 10 pictures using your webcam.
Press any key after every shot to take a new one.
Demo
====
To test face recognition use the demo that captures view from your webcam
and recognizes faces in realtime::
$ python3 facerecognition/main.py demo
Requirements
============
* NumPy
* OpenCV 3
* matplotlib
* PIL - Python Imaging Library
* Python 3
Acknowledgements
================
Big thanks to Antony Ross providing me with the face recognition library
and guiding me through it.
