Trying to get faces anonymization on video images we've
been
first using
Transcode with OpenCV.
We don't use that code anymore
but you can take a look to the result in the first video
on the test
page. Videos on that page can
be scaled to understand
how OpenCV's cascade whorks.
STATE OF THE PROJECT
There are two git repositories using our facedetect.c
code for video plugins by now
The first called "gst-opencv"
is
mantained
mainly
by
Mike Sheldon.
The Gstreamer plugin is not actually updated with our last
facedetect, but it can be used in pitivi (Lucid default video editor);
this version only detects faces, it doesn't
follow them.
This means that it is able to detect more faces but may not detect the
same face in two near frames; an idea of what's wrong with that is
shown in the second and third video here.
This "face-detect" work is done thanks to Cascade's
technology.
Also frei0r
has now a plugin to blur faces and the last video
on the video test
page is
his; Open Movie Editor
actually runs that plugin.
Frei0r has implemented
the
last version of our facedetect.c code
that merges the cascade and camshift
function from OpenCV to
follow faces through frames.
