INTRODUCTION
Let’s see: have you ever used the app called Snapchat?
If yes, then you would have tried, at least once, to use one of those super weird face filters that come along with it.
But haven’t you ever been curious as to how Snapchat manages to rightly put a filter on your face?
Well, it uses the technology of Computer Vision. Face Filters using Computer Vision works quite similarly and is an original concept that has had the good fortune of coming into life because of the immensely capable Digital Content Team of Virtual Reality Systems.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY FACE FILTERS USING COMPUTER VISION?
Face Filters using Computer Vision is an application that is enabled to recognize the facial structure (by using the technology of Face Recognition) of the user and match it to certain attractive animations.
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application is purely an instance of the Computer Vision application which allows the users to modify their facial features during video chats and for photos by using a bunch of Augmented Reality (AR) filters.
HOW DOES THE FACE FILTERS USING COMPUTER VISION APPLICATION WORK?
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application uses a specific area of Computer Vision called Image processing. The application, broadly, works in three simple steps.
The first step is called Face Detection where all the human faces that are present in the image or video are found out.
The second step is called Facial Landmarks Extraction where the facial features of each detected face, such as the eyes, lips, bone, nose, mouth, etc. are extracted.
The third and the final step is called Image Processing where the chosen filter is finally applied onto a full face.
The best feature of the Face Filters using Computer Vision application is that it is very accessible to every regular person and hence, it is an easy-to-use application.






USES OF THE FACE FILTERS USING COMPUTER VISION APPLICATION IN THE INDUSTRY
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application is such an application that excels in serving the use of more than a couple of aspects. They are as follows:
- Computer Entertainment
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application has been used to attract people of all age groups due to its unique and fun features to try it at least once in their lifetime and come off surprised every time.
- Virtual try-on
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application has been used to perform virtual try-ons on the users’ faces to market the particular product better. Here, the face is primarily detected with 68 landmark points of the face. This helps in covering the whole face from the forehead till the chin and from the right ear to the left ear. Now, based on this information, the application knows where to set its position so that the Tryon of the products (say, jewelry, make-up, or sunglasses) can take place smoothly.
- Prevent crime
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application which uses the technology of Face Recognition has been used to identify criminals in public places, drug dealers on school grounds, and cheaters in casinos to prevent crime and maintaining peace and discipline.
- Clothes tryouts
The Face Filters using Computer Vision application which uses the technology of Face Recognition has been used to make virtual clothing try on a possibility. Here, the user has to just stand in front of the webcam to access a virtual closet full of attractive clothing.
Ladies, you can now say bye-bye to dressing rooms!
