The face detection demo algorithm included in the C6748 Sys/BIOS software development kit demonstrates the capability of the device to capture images, process the images on a TI C6748 DSP and then display the images on the output. OpenCV's cxcore library is used to identify a face. The input is captured using a standard composite video camera in the form of YUV images at 30fps. The images are passed to the DSP for processing. The output of the OpenCV algorithms provides the coordinates of the face identified. These images are then displayed on a composite video output.
