    Count number of Faces using

    Python – OpenCV

    in this article, we will use image processing


    to detect and count the number of faces. We
    are not supposed to get all the features of
    the face. Instead, the objective is to obtain
    the bounding box through some methods i.e.
    coordinates of the face in the image,
    depending on different areas covered by the
    number of the coordinates, number faces
    that will be computed.
    Required libraries:
    OpenCV library in python is a computer
    vision library, mostly used for image
    processing, video processing, and analysis,
    facial recognition and detection, etc.
    Dlib library in python contains the pre-
    trained facial landmark detector, that is
    used to detect the (x, y) coordinates that
    map to facial structures on the face.
    Numpy is a general-purpose array-
    processing package. It provides a high-
    performance multidimensional array object
    and tools for working with these arrays.
    Below is the step-wise approach to Count
    the Number of faces:
    Step 1: Import required libraries.
    # Import libraries
    import cv2
    import numpy as np
    import dlib

    Step 2: Open the default camera to capture


    faces and use the dlib library to get
    coordinates.
    # (0) in VideoCapture is used to
    # connect to your computer's default
    camera
    cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
    # Get the coordinates
    detector = dlib.get_frontal_face_detector()

    Step 3: Count the number of faces.


    Capture the frames continuously.
    Convert the frames to grayscale(not
    necessary).
    Take an iterator i and initialize it to zero.
    Each time you get the coordinates to the
    face structure in the frame, increment the
    iterator by 1.
    Plot the box around each detected face
    along with its face count.
    while True:

    # Capture frame-by-frame
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    frame = cv2.flip(frame, 1)

    # Our operations on the frame come here


    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame,
    cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    faces = detector(gray)

    # Counter to count number of faces


    i=0
    for face in faces:
    x, y = face.left(), face.top()
    x1, y1 = face.right(), face.bottom()
    cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x1, y1), (0,
    255, 0), 2)

    # Increment the iterartor each time


    you get the coordinates
    i = i+1

    # Adding face number to the box


    detecting faces
    cv2.putText(frame, 'face num'+str(i),
    (x-10, y-10),
    cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX,
    0.7, (0, 0, 255), 2)
    print(face, i)

    # Display the resulting frame


    (f f )
    Step 4: Terminate the loop.

    # Enter key 'q' to break the loop


    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
    break

    Step 5: Clear windows.

    # When everything done, release


    # the capture and destroy the windows
    cap.release()
    cv2.destroyAllWindows()
    Below is the complete program of the above
    approach:
    # Import required libraries
    import cv2

    import numpy as np
    import dlib

    # Connects to your computer's default camera


    cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

    # Detect the coordinates

    detector = dlib.get_frontal_face_detector()

    # Capture frames continuously


    while True:

    # Capture frame-by-frame
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    frame = cv2.flip(frame, 1)

    # RGB to grayscale
    gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
    faces = detector(gray)

    # Iterator to count faces


    i=0

    for face in faces:

    # Get the coordinates of faces

    x, y = face.left(), face.top()
    x1, y1 = face.right(), face.bottom()
    cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x1, y1), (0, 255, 0), 2)

    # Increment iterator for each face in faces


    i = i+1

    # Display the box and faces


    cv2.putText(frame, 'face num'+str(i), (x-10, y-10),
    cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 0.7, (0, 0,
    255), 2)
    print(face, i)

    # Display the resulting frame


    cv2.imshow('frame', frame)

    # This command let's us quit with the "q" button on


    a keyboard.
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):

    break

    # Release the capture and destroy the windows


    cap.release()
