SunteHo

Detects Distance of the person from the screen and adjustes the volume accordingly

Conceptual | Simple Logic | Accuracy needs to be increased

How this works?

• Uses OpenCV to detect faces.
• From reading some things online, found that to measure distance from screen, I would need an object with known dimensions in the frame, calculate focal lenght and then use it to find the distance from required objects.
• This did not look feasible. Spent some time and talked to a friend.
• So, this is what the program mainly does :
  • Makes a box around the faces.
  • Calculates its area.
  • We just want relative distance, so keep on comparing the area in fix intervals of time.
  • Adjusts volume with pynput
  • Not too good results, will keep on in

Requirements

• OpenCV
• pynput

Not getting too good results with this.

Increase efficiency

The concept is good enough in theory, but this needs a workaround to improve efficiency.
