Description
Computer vision is an exciting and growing field. There are tons of interesting problems to solve! One of them is face detection: the ability of a computer to recognize that a photograph contains a human face, and tell you where it is located. In this course, you’ll learn about face detection with Python.
To detect any object in an image, it is necessary to understand how images are represented inside a computer, and how that object differs visually from any other object.
Once that is done, the process of scanning an image and looking for those visual cues needs to be automated and optimized. All these steps come together to form a fast and reliable computer vision algorithm.
In this course, you’ll learn:
What You'll Learn?
- What face detection is
- How computers understand features in images
- How to quickly analyze many different features to reach a decision
- How to use a minimal Python solution for detecting human faces in images

Instructor's CoursesHi I’m Austin Cepalia, a video tutorial author at Real Python. I’m currently a student working towards a degree in computer science at Rochester Institute of Technology, but I learn best when I can work through projects at my own pace and challenge my understanding of whatever it is I’m learning.
I’ve held a few education-related positions in the past five years, such as computing instructor at a community program, iD Tech Camps, and my local university K12 program. Now, I combine my passions for programming, computer science, teaching, and digital media to create engaging video tutorials here at Real Python.
My background is primarily in Microsoft technologies like C# and .NET, but I’ve loved learning Python over the past few years, especially when I can utilize libraries like Matplotlib to easily plot data and help me in my various STEM courses.
