SkinDetector

This is a high-speed python based skin detection system using OpenCV, it is done using adaptive thresholding, reference papers can be found below. It is designed for processing VGA sized images in real time for Gesture Control.

Quick Start

Getting the app to run is pretty easy. This script will not install OpenCV. However to install the rest of the project dependencies and run the demo script use the following commands;

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/WillBrennan/SkinDetector && cd SkinDetector
make install
python FromFile.py <directory of images> --display

Usage

import cv2
import skin_detector

img_path = raw_input("Please Enter Image Path")
image = cv2.imread(img_path)
mask = skin_detector.process(image)
cv2.imshow("input", image)
cv2.imshow("mask", mask)
cv2.waitKey(0)
