Real Time Face swapper

A face swapper using opencv and mediapipe packages written in python

This project is based on this YouTube video, but instead of using the dlib package, I used mediapipe for the face detection process.

How to run the program

1. first you need to install opencv and mediapipe

   pip install opencv-python

   pip install mediapipe

2. then run realtime_face_swapping.py

   python realtime_face_swapping.py

This is how the program works

1. first with opencv we read the first face image.
2. then by using mediapipe we can find the landmarks on the first face image.
3. using opencv and the specified landmarks, we can create some triangles on the first face image.
4. we do the same to the second image that we read from camera by using opencv.
5. after that we map the corresponding triangles from first face image to the second face image.
