Facial Recognition

This project was completed in my junior year of high school for my engineering class. On a Jetson Nano board, I wrote a program to recognize and identify faces from webcam video using OpenCV and Python’s facial_recognition library.

I followed this tutorial when making this project. It involved learning how to use OpenCV, including image segmentation and object detection, along with creating the facial recognition program.

NOTE: Unfortunately, this project was done before I knew the importance of documentation, so only a few images and videos of low quality remain. Thanks for your understanding.
