FaceTie: NoTie's Facial Recognition Adds a Virtual Tie

Inspiration

I hate wearing ties. They are an example of Style over Substance. That's why I named my app business "NoTie" (http://NoTie.NET and http://twitter.com/NoTie!)

How it works

FaceTie uses Facial Recognition to superimpose a Virtual Tie around your neck, without the hassle of a real tie! You can even choose different color ties!

Challenges I ran into

It's hard to get the positioning just right, depending on how close or far the user is, but it works pretty well.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I had to learn/teach myself facial recognition and how to scale the tie image in real-time.

What I learned

See above.
