Face detection

[gunthercox]

I recently saw an interesting article (http://www.pyimagesearch.com/2016/01/04/unifying-picamera-and-cv2-videocapture-into-a-single-class-with-opencv/) featuring some different projects conducted with cameras on a Raspberry Pi using Open CV.

At some point it might be interesting to experiment with adding face detection to the network-camera module. I would be interested in looking into web sockets (on the api side) as a possibility for a design that is slightly more event driven (an event could be something such as when a face is detected).

• Object tracking events (motion direction information)
• Face recognition events
• Written word detection events
