Hi,

I'm trying to implement multiple text in a video frame. E.g. the following code just display 1 text for an image. In this code at present I can pass one "name" at a time. I want to pass multiple names. E.g. if 2 people are detected it should pass 2 names.

video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)

while True:
    # Grab a single frame of video
    ret, frame = video_capture.read()


    # Loop through each face in this frame of video
    faces = faceCascade.detectMultiScale(
    gray,
    scaleFactor=1.1,
    minNeighbors=5,
    minSize=(30, 30),
    flags=cv2.cv.CV_HAAR_SCALE_IMAGE)

    # Draw a rectangle around the faces
    for (x, y, w, h) in faces:
        cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x+w, y+h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
        # Draw a label with a name below the face
        cv2.rectangle(frame, (left, bottom - 35), (right, bottom), (0, 0, 255), cv2.FILLED)
        font = cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_DUPLEX
        cv2.putText(frame, name, (left + 6, bottom - 6), font, 1.0, (255, 255, 255), 1)


    # Display the resulting frame
    cv2.imshow('Video', frame)

    # Hit 'q' on the keyboard to quit!
    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break

# Release handle to the webcam
video_capture.release()
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

Thank you!

btw, is this supposed to run on your docker webserver ?

(no camera, no gui there, you would need a significantly different code-flow for that.)

@berak: No. It's just for local system. I'm first trying to make it on local system before shifting it on docker.

btw, you want to base the text location on x,y, not on something constant (else, your 2nd message will overwrite the 1rst, etc.)

unfortunately, your code is doing face detection only. it does not know anything about different ppl, or even their names .

have a look at opencv's face recognition framework to do that.

Once you have used @berak answer to resolve the name issue, getting the number of people is easy. The related equation is:

Number of faces = size of the face array
