Real Time Face Tracking with pose estimation - OPENCV

http://sites.google.com/site/ferrariimageprocessing/ : This is my face tracker with pose estimation. It's developed with OpenCV using CONDENSATION algorithm (Condensation - conditional density propagation for visual tracking M. Isard and A. Blake) and a face AdaBoost cascade detector (Robust Real-time Object Detection P.Viola and M. Jones). It's able to run until 60-70 fps with 320 x 240 images, on a commercial pc (2.2 Ghz, dual core). The markers are useful only to compute statistics about the precision of the detection, not for tracking the faces.

excellent job, would really like to see the code for the position estimation.. any chance you will release it?

@ssjtoma Thank you! By now I'm not planning to release the code.. However if you're interested in my project for research purposes I can help you suggesting interesting papers and references.

that would be great too, I'm working on something similar as well at the moment =)
