Webcam Face detection demo: Now with source!

So a little while ago, Halloween in fact, I threw together a demo of some face-detection stuff I’d been looking at. [Check out the original post here.]  We originally had the demo on the MMT Digital homepage, but recently that’s been updated and my demo got lost in the process, so I’ve restored it here, along with the Flex project for it.

Augmented Reality Halloween

So, here it is: the live demo and underneath, a link to the source code for it.

The code itself I’m not going to try explaining, but it’s a hack of other demos that are out there on the web.

Download the Flex project now.

    @james – Can’t see anything as in camera feed? If you’re on a Mac it might be that this example has out-of-date camera detection – Macs tend to get confused with cameras in Flash, and the code might be only picking the first camera in the available cameras list.

    I shall try getting the code on GitHub and seeing if there’s a fix to be made…

    hi

    thanks for your attention, but my operating system is Windows 7. The strangest thing is that I does not like in your site, but if it works to a friend.
