Face Recognition with Python, in under 25 lines of code - Real Python

The following is a guest post by Shantnu Tiwari, who has worked in the low level/embedded domain for ten years. Shantnu suffered at the hands of C/C for several years before he discovered Python, and it felt like a breath of fresh air. He is now sharing his love. In this post we'll look at a surprisingly simple way to get started with face recognition using Python and the open source library OpenCV. OpenCV is the most popular library for computer vision.
