The face tracking project is an autonomous application in which Reachy will detect faces in its field of view and track the detected face that is closet to it.
This can be used as is to make demo with the robot, show the capabilities of the Orbita actuator or serve as a brick to build more complex and interactive applications.
Clone the repository and install it on your Reachy with pip.
cd ~/dev
git clone https://github.com/pollen-robotics/reachy-face-tracking.git
cd reachy-face-tracking
pip3 install -e .
You can run the application directly with Python.
cd ~/dev/reachy-face-tracking
python3 -m reachy-face-tracking.face_tracking_launcher
