I am working with OpenCV in Python for facial identification and I want to crop the live video from my webcam to just output the face it recognizes.
I have tried using ROI but I do not know how to correctly implement it.
import cv2
import sys
cascPath = "haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml"
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cv2.data.haarcascades + "haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml")
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while True:
# Capture frame-by-frame
ret, frame = video_capture.read()
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
gray,
scaleFactor=1.1,
minNeighbors=5,
minSize=(30, 30),
flags=cv2.CASCADE_SCALE_IMAGE
)
# Draw a rectangle around the faces
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x,y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
roi = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
cropped = frame[roi]
# Display the resulting frame
cv2.imshow('Face', cropped)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Ben/Desktop/facerecog/facerecog2.py", line 31, in <module>
cv2.imshow('Face', cropped)
cv2.error: OpenCV(4.1.1) C:\projects\opencv-python\opencv\modules\core\src\array.cpp:2492: error: (-206:Bad flag (parameter or structure field)) Unrecognized or unsupported array type in function 'cvGetMat'
You get cropped image with
cropped = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
and then you can display it.
But sometimes there is no face on frame and it will not create cropped and you can get error. Better create this variabel before for and check it after for
cropped = None
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cropped = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
if cropped is not None:
cv2.imshow('Face', cropped)
#else:
# cv2.imshow('Face', frame)
or
if faces:
(x, y, w, h) = faces[0]
cropped = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
cv2.imshow('Face', cropped)
I don't know what you want to do if there will be many faces on frame.

I'm trying to get facial recognition to work, but this error happens on line 18. I have no idea what to change, any help?
import cv2
import sys
# Get user supplied values
imagePath = sys.argv[1]
cascPath = sys.argv[2]
# Create the haar cascade
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cascPath)
# Read the image
image = cv2.imread(imagePath)
gray = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
# Detect faces in the image
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
gray,
scaleFactor=1.1,
minNeighbors=5,
minSize=(30, 30),
flags = cv2.cv.CV_HAAR_SCALE_IMAGE
)
print("Found {0} faces!".format(len(faces)))
# Draw a rectangle around the faces
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(image, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
cv2.imshow("Faces found", image)
cv2.waitKey(0)
so, I'm trying to code face detection but its not working. this is my code:
import cv2
import sys
cascPath = sys.argv[0]
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cascPath)
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while True:
ret, frame = video_capture.read()
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
gray,
scaleFactor=1.1,
minNeighbors=5,
minSize=(30, 30),
flags=cv2.cv.CV_HAAR_SCALE_IMAGE
)
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
cv2.imshow('Video', frame)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
video_capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
I'm very new to coding so I don't know if I'm missing something obvious
Change your code as follows:
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cv2.data.haarcascades + cascPath)
This worked for me.
This code is to detect face and eyes using webcam but getting this error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:/Acads/7.1 Sem/BTP/FaceDetect-master/6.py", line 28, in <module>
eyes = eyeCascade.detectMultiScale(roi)
NameError: name 'roi' is not defined
but when i use this code do detect faces and eyes in a image its working properly without any error
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import cv2
import sys
import numpy as np
import os
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier('haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml')
eyeCascade= cv2.CascadeClassifier('haarcascade_eye.xml')
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while True:
# Capture frame-by-frame
ret, frame = video_capture.read()
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(frame)
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
roi = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
eyes = eyeCascade.detectMultiScale(roi)
for (ex,ey,ew,eh) in eyes:
cv2.rectangle(roi,(ex,ey),(ex+ew,ey+eh), 255, 2)
cv2.imshow('Video', frame)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
video_capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
I think it is just a problem of indentation.
roi is out of scope when you go out of the faces loop.
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
roi = frame[y:y+h, x:x+w]
# eyes detection runs for each face
eyes = eyeCascade.detectMultiScale(roi)
for (ex,ey,ew,eh) in eyes:
cv2.rectangle(roi,(ex,ey),(ex+ew,ey+eh), 255, 2)
I used the following code to detect a face using Haar cascade classifiers provided by OpenCv Python. But the faces are not detected and the square around the face is not drawn. How to solve this?
import cv2
index=raw_input("Enter the index No. : ")
cascPath = "haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml"
faceCascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(cascPath)
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
cont=0
while(True):
# Capture frame-by-frame
ret, frame = cap.read()
# Our operations on the frame come here
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
gray,
scaleFactor=1.1,
minNeighbors=10,
minSize=(30, 30),
flags = cv2.cv.CV_HAAR_SCALE_IMAGE
)
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
#cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
# Display the resulting frame
cv2.imshow('frame',frame)
inpt=cv2.waitKey(1)
if inpt & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
elif inpt & 0xFF == ord('s') :
#name='G:\XCODRA\Integrated_v_01\EigenFaceRecognizer\img2'+index+"."+(str(cont))+".png"
name='IC_image\\'+index+"."+(str(cont))+".png"
resized = cv2.resize(gray,None,fx=200, fy=200, interpolation = cv2.INTER_AREA)
img=cv2.equalizeHist(resized)
cv2.imwrite(name,img)
print cont
cont+=1
Use the full path for the classifier.
I have been trying to run a face detection feature from my webcam using code from realpython.com and suggestions I saw on this site.
import cv2
import sys
import os
cascPath = "{base_path}/folder_with_your_xml/haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml".format(
base_path=os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__)))
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
while True:
# Capture frame-by-frame
ret, frame = video_capture.read()
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
gray,
scaleFactor=1.1,
minNeighbors=5,
minSize=(30, 30),
flags=cv2.cv.CV_HAAR_SCALE_IMAGE
)
# Draw a rectangle around the faces
for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
# Display the resulting frame
cv2.imshow('Video', frame)
if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
break
# When everything is done, release the capture
video_capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
This is the error I get when I run the code:
File "videocam.py", line 16, in <module>
gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
cv2.error: /build/buildd/opencv-2.4.8+dfsg1/modules/imgproc/src/color.cpp:3737: error: (-215) scn == 3 || scn == 4 in function cvtColor
From what I've gathered, it's because frame is not 3-dimensional and a NoneType object. I am only just starting with OpenCV and face recognition, so I'm not entirely sure how to fix this.
