TODO

Most of my TODO's for the project will be in the Visual Studio Task list. This is just an overview of the projects to do

Personal

Personal todo for the project

School Assignment

• [] Brute Force: (20%)
  • Search the entire image, 256x256 rectangle, then check to see if that is a face
• Optimize face space: (10%)
  • Viola-Jones
• Motion tracking & Head tracking: (20%)
  • Using Viola-Jones
  • Searches the image initially to find the face first,
  • Then remembers where the face is and searches locally around it to see if it is still in the image
• [] Background elimitation: (10%)
  • Use AForge's Gaussian blur on the found face to eliminate the background

  Maybe other methods as weel.

• Integration of code provided: (20%)
  • Get previous student code working with the face found

Thoughs

Basic ideas and just a notepad for thoughts on the project

1. Find the best face

   • Instead of using just rekt[0], use rekt[i], looping through the faces and finding the best

       for(int i = 0; i < rects.Lenght; i++){
           // Calc face distance here
           if(calcFaceDist < FACE_THRESH){
               // We may have a face
               if(calcFaceDist < min){
                   faceRectangle = rect[i];
                   min = calcFaceDist;
               }
           }
       }  
     

   What functions do I need to call here? What am I actually calculating?

2. Add a taskbar for when the process is being found
