I've implemented OpenCV-based face tracking on my R2. This is the very first test with a very simple algorithm and poor lighting. There is lots of room for improvement :-)
The PC in the dome is an Atom-based Net PC with a NVIDIA ION graphics chip, which does the face detection. The PC then forwards dome rotation commands to an Arduino in the body. Position control is done with a rotary soft pot.
That is amazing !!
