Newbie Question

Android/Java

Hi

I have an Android application that includes the ability to take pictures. I would like to automatically detect and blur faces if they appear in the image - and I would like to do this in my app on the device before the images are sent to a server.

Could someone please confirm this is possible with OpenCV, and if so, point me in the right direction regarding appropriate documentation?

Many thanks for any help

Simon

possible, but you’d probably have an easier time using established Android APIs for this (ML Kit, mediapipe, …).

Many thanks - that looks like it would give me the face detection. What would you suggest is the best approach to implement the blur?

Android APIs, again. it’ll surely have all kinds of image filters.
