DiscordEmoji

Using Google Cloud Vision, we created a bot that takes an image, crops out just their face and makes a Discord Emoji.

Inspiration

We want to make memes out of the people we know.

What it does

Created a Discord bot that reads in an image from Discord and finds a human face within the image. It crops out the face and uploads the new image to Discord, and creates a new emoji with the face.

How we built it

Using Google Cloud Vision to find the face within an image. Using Discord JDA to create the bot. This was all written in Java.

Challenges we ran into

Google Cloud Vision only accepts certain types of images, which took a long time to debug, because we had to figure out how to parse an image in the format they wanted.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Actually got a discord bot to use Google Cloud Vision to upload a cropped image of someone's face.

What we learned

How to use Google Cloud Vision and create a Discord bot using Discord JDA.

What's next for DiscordEmoji

Get it to create an emoji automatically out of the cropped face.
