Face tracking
We are going to use Python with OpenCV and Google’s MediaPipe to track the face using a webcam (built-in webcam or any webcam connected to your laptop).
Install the packages (Python 3.12 recommended):
pip install mediapipe python-osc opencv-python
Tested with mediapipe 0.10.32, opencv-python 4.12.0.88, but should work for the latest version.
Python MediaPipe example
This is a simple example using the webcam to extract facial landmarks. Nose tip is extracted and its position is constantly printed out.
Control mouse cursor and keyboard
pip install pyautogui
