Face Landmark Detection & Pose Estimation With Raspberry Pi + OpenCV + Python

Full Article - https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/pose-and-face-landmark-raspberry-pi/
Face Masking uses computer vision to exactly map the geometry of your face, overlaying 468 dots and segments across all of your features. Pose Estimation expands on this by identifying the key location of every major part of your body. I'm going to show you exactly how to run and pull data from these types of computer vision using a Raspberry Pi Single Board Computer.

Furthering my quest for complete knowledge on artificial intelligence with Raspberry Pi the natural next step was to investigate Pose Recognition (Human Keypoint Detection) and Face Masking (Facial Landmark Recognition) with the formidable Raspberry Pi single-board computer. Machine and deep learning has never been more accessible as this video will demonstrate. Cameras in combination with machine learning create the most powerful sensor you can ever put on a Raspberry Pi Single Board Computer. Face Masking is a computer vision method that will exactly identify and map the geometry of your face which can then be represented by dots and segments across all your features. Doing this means it will know exactly where your eyes are in relation to your eyebrows or your nose in relation to your lips. Using very similar geometry mapping principles, Pose estimation expands on this by identifying the location of every key part of your body. These two topics are not exactly the same, but I thought we could combine them together into this one video. Were just using computer vision to accurately pinpoint dots on the human body after all. All the scripts are fully open-source and can readily be expanded taking your projects to amazing places.
