Flash Facetracking kicks ass
(This is a repost from March 2009, my blog crashed in the meantime 
)
Last week I noticed a couple Flash guys jumping on the face tracking code. The legendary Mario Klingemann (aka Quasimondo) did a great example and shared his source code.
I really appreciate the fact that people are sharing this source code for others to play with. Good work!
I totaly love the idea of being able to track your face with the webcam. I had a little demo working yesterday (st Patricks day) where I drop a green hat on your head. Hours of fun .
Today on the way into work I remembered the movie The Ring where peoples faces got blurred in pictures when they were about to die. So 20 minutes of playing around with Mario’s source code later and you can see the result below.
I can’t wait to spend a bit more time on this code and hopefully will be doing some client work using this technology soon. Fingers crossed.
