Description: simple face detector for batch processing
Facedetect is a simple face detector for batch processing. It answers
the basic question: "Is there a face in this image?" and gives back
either an exit code or the coordinates of each detected face in the
standard output.
.
The aim is to provide a basic command-line interface that's consistent
and easy to use with software such as ImageMagick, while progressively
improving the detection algorithm over time.
.
facedetect is used in software such as fgallery to improve the thumbnail
cutting region, so that faces are always centered.
