Being sick over the past two days prevented me from going to work. Therefore, I decided to play with OpenCV on iOS and I ended up with this project, which I want to share with you guys :)

The idea is to use Haar feature-based cascade classifiers, which is implemented in OpenCV and used for face detection. Nothing new, I have just put the pieces together and reached the results below.

In this article, you can find all steps for this to work. I also provided a link to the source I used with each step.
