Experiments with ofxFaceTracker
Using OpenFrameworks and Kyle McDonald's ofxFaceTracker library, I attepted to implement an interactive art piece, where based on the location of the viewer face, it would recreate a face using simple lines.
I was influenced by other FaceTracker implementations and also Delaunay triangulation. Although there was a library in OpenFrameworks which implemented Delaunay triangulation, due to certain restrictions I could not implement it, and attempted to make my own version.
More on Delaunay Triangulation
OpenFrameworks is an open source C++ toolkit, which allows for more control over graphics rendering.
My code implements two main functions. Open which integrates through the vertex point of the facetracker, and creating a wire frame of the viewers face. The second function iterates through the FaceOutline, and add vertex points to the outer edge of the frame, allowing for a rudimentary implementation of Delaunay Triangulation.
Below are two sets of screenshots. One for my final (and still tentative implmentation), and a second set which instead of focusing on the outer face, just focuses on features.

Please note that this is just the code and is dependent on having ofx downloaded as well as the ofxFaceTracker library included as well.
