OpenCV for Secret Agents!

Hi folks!

I'm Sam Birch, a commissioning editor at Packt (www.packtpub.com). We are going to produce a book with the above title - and yes, we want it to be as incredible as that sounds! Possible projects include...

  • a robot that can acquire a specific target and follow it, whilst recording what the target does
  • a lie detector using motion tracking to measure pulse rate (like a cheap, non-invasive polygraph)
  • a face recognition doorway entrance system (useful for that volcano-top secret lair)

...along with loads of other cool ideas. I'm interested in talking to anyone who either a) is interested in writing the book, or b) has any fantastic suggestions for projects to include (or c) both, which is preferable!). These are only ideas, if you're interested in working on this project then we can have a chat about what actual projects we can do!

Cheers,

Sam
