Draft Feedback
Draft is a bit thin right now. Consider adding pictures to tell your story. I look forward to the finished project.

Executive Summary
Using the PSEye, a user will be able to take a picture of himself or herself. They will then be able to edit the picture to put fun things on their face such as sunglasses, mustaches, etc.
Currently we have down reseach on different current sample code that takes pictures. We were origonally taking pictures using Linux drivers. Now we are taking pictures with OpenCV. We also have developed the sever to hold the images and the options to put pictures on the face.
Packaging
There is no packaging for this. Just attach the PSEye onto the beagle bone and connect the beagle bone to a computer.
Installation Instructions
Give step by step instructions on how to install your project.
- Include your github path as a link like this to the read-only git site: https://github.com/MarkAYoder/gitLearn.
- Be sure your README.md is includes an up-to-date and clear description of your project so that someone who comes across you git repository can quickly learn what you did and how they can reproduce it.
- Include a Makefile for you code.
- Include any additional packages installed via opkg.
- Include kernel mods.
- If there is extra hardware needed, include links to where it can be obtained.
User Instructions
First, make sure the Beagle Bone is off. Plug in the PSEye camera into the USB port on the bone. Now turn on the bone by plugging it in to a PC.
To run the program, run the following command. It will take a bit before the Listening on 9090 appears.
beagle$ node boneServer.js Listening on 9090
This will pop up as well, but this is just a side not. Ignore it.
Option log level is not valid. Please refer to the README.
Your bone is now running a sever. To view it, on your web browser go to the following.
192.168.7.2:9090
From there you can have a picture taken, and can start placing FUN images on your picture. Start by pressing the take a picture button. A a few seconds, a new picture will pop up on the screen. Press the hat, sunglasses, and mustache buttons to add the corresponding features to the face.
Highlights
Watch our youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO4rIyi-xgw&app=desktop
Theory of Operation
Give a high level overview of the structure of your software. Are you using GStreamer? Show a diagram of the pipeline. Are you running multiple tasks? Show what they do and how they interact.
Work Breakdown
List the major tasks in your project and who did what.
Also list here what doesn't work yet and when you think it will be finished and who is finishing it.
Completed: Setting up web page hosted on Beaglebone: Joe Militello
Setting up facial feature recognition: Tim Smith
Plans to come: We need to figure out how to run a bash file that will run the facial feature recognition script, which will take a picture and analyze it for the points where eyes and where the face is. we are hoping to get this finished by 11/9. We are both working together to get this finished.
We need to get options of pictures to put on our faces. We plan on getting this done by 11/8, while working together.
Future Work
This project could be changed so that live stream video can be added. Instead of it taking a picture, it would live stream the video to the webrowser.
Furthermore, the program could do live tracking, so when the face moves, the fun face elements would move along with it.
Conclusions
Give some concluding thoughts about the project. Suggest some future additions that could make it even more interesting.
Overall we are happy with the results of our project. We are able to take pictures from the Beagle Bone, upload them to a web sever hosted by the Beagle Bone, do facial recognition, and finally add funny elements to the picture.
If we were to do this again, we would try to add live video streaming to it. Furthermore we would add more fun elements to add to the picture.
