This week I did some actual testing on different facial recognition libraries to figure out what would be the best library to use for our project. As a team, we narrowed it down to either OpenCV or dlib and after testing, I concluded that using OpenCV would be best for our project.
Since there were changes to the web app component of our project, I wasn’t able to create mockups of the UI so I am a bit behind schedule. Once the web app component is solidified, I will get back on schedule
Next week, I plan on using OpenCV to create an initial face recognition system that can do real-time face recognition and (time permitting) add the initial software that will communicate with the rack.
