Liveness Detection with OpenCV - PyImageSearch

In this tutorial, you will learn how to perform liveness detection with OpenCV. You will create a liveness detector capable of spotting fake faces and performing anti-face spoofing in face recognition systems. How do I spot real versus fake faces? Consider what would happen if a nefarious user tried to purposely circumvent your face recognition system. Such a user could try to hold up a photo of another person. Maybe they even have a photo or video on their smartphone that they could hold up to the camera responsible for performing face recognition (such as in the image at the top of this post).
