Project: SwapCV

This project allows you to swap faces in real time.

Required Libraries

To run the script you'll need -

• dlib
• Haar Cascades
• OpenCV

You'll also need to obtain the trained model from sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dclib/files/dlib/v18.10/shape_predictor_68_face_landmarks.dat.bz2

Unzip with bunzip2 and change PREDICTOR_PATH to refer to this file.

Get the frontal face Haar Cascade from : https://github.com/opencv/opencv/tree/master/data/haarcascades

Get dlib from (http://dlib.net).

Instructions -

To run this code, in the file FaceSwapCV.ipynb, on line 8 in the code block add the path of your predictor in 'PREDICTOR_PATH' variable and on line 35 add the path of your HAAR cascade classifier in the variable 'cascade_path'.

The code for swapping faces using Dlib was sourced from https://matthewearl.github.io/2015/07/28/switching-eds-with-python/ and the original code was modified to implementation of face swap filters in real time.
