Project Overview

This project's main goal is to be able to create an application on the Android mobile platform that will use face detection to track the head movements of the user. The face detection is used with OpenCV and Androids Face Detection API, and with these algorithms, we are able to locate the face with the device's front facing camera. After face detection has been implemented, we would need to be able to track the faces X,Y and Z coordinates (relative to the camera). With this data, we would be able to create a 3D model view where the user would be able to look around the object by simply moving their head.
