# Welcome to SimpleFaceDetection!
## About SimpleFaceDetection
SimpleFaceDetection is a user-friendly Python program that leverages OpenCV to detect faces in real-time using your webcam. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced user, this tool makes it easy for anyone to try their hand at face detection.
## How to Get Started
Getting started with SimpleFaceDetection is a breeze. Follow these steps:
**1. Install OpenCV**
- Begin by installing the OpenCV module. Open your terminal and run the following command:
```
pip install opencv-python
```
Wait patiently until the installation is complete.
**2. Run the Program**
- Once OpenCV is installed, you're ready to run the SimpleFaceDetection program. Execute the following command:
```
python3 DetectFace.py
```
**3. Using the Program**
- After running the program, a pop-up window will appear, displaying the feed from your webcam.
- Keep an eye on the screen to see if your face is being detected. When a successful detection occurs, a green box will appear around your face, indicating a perfect match.
**4. Closing the Pop-Up**
- To close the pop-up window and end the program, simply press the 'Q' key on your keyboard.
