How to count the number of faces
Dec 28 2010 | 6:49 pm
Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to set up a patch with the cv.jit.faces object and I need some sort of attribute that gives me the ability to count the number of faces of detected. You see, I want the patch to do one thing if there are LESS than 3 faces and another if there are MORE than 3.
I hope my question is clear and I would really appreciate anyone to share some thoughts on the problem at hand.
Thanks!
- Dec 28 2010 | 7:07 pmThis solution is mentioned in the [cv.jit.faces] help file.Send message getnfaces to [cv.jit.faces] connect to the second outlet [route nfaces] with a [number] box and you have what you want.

I'm trying to do what you said, but for some reason I can't seem to piece the parts together. Do you mind taking a look at what I've put together so far?Thanks!
