Facial recognition with openCV4 controlling monster avatar
This project should run on Windows, Mac, or Linux since it uses openCV and a cross platform GUI. Install the required packages with pip, but if you you are on linux... installing the wxpython files is not fun since the wheels are not well supported. See the following website for help: https://wxpython.org/pages/downloads/index.html
If you are using linux on MAC, then see below for help installing drivers for your webcam before you do a test with openCV.
Run the following command to install all the requirements from the doc. This sometimes works... you can also just install everything in the requirements document and you may need different versions based on your setup. Good luck.
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
