# SkinDetector
============
This is a python based skin detection system using OpenCV,
This is a high-speed python based skin detection system using OpenCV, it is done using adaptive thresholding, reference papers can be found below. It is designed for processing VGA sized images in real time for the [Gesture Control](https://github.com/WillBrennan/GestureControl) project.
## Quick Start
Getting the app to run is pretty easy, just clone the repo, install requirements, and then run! This script
will not install OpenCV, to do that, the following commands must be used,
```bash
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install cmake git libgtk2.0-dev pkg-config libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev
sudo apt-get install python-dev python-numpy libtbb2 libtbb-dev libjpeg-dev libpng-dev libtiff-dev libjasper-dev libdc1394-22-dev
git clone https://github.com/Itseez/opencv.git
~/opencv
mkdir release
cd release
cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
make
sudo make install
```
To install the rest of the project dependencies and run
