Python Face Detection from Scratch (OpenCV + YOLO + Webcam)

Face detection has been watching you for years. Every time you unlock your phone, walk through an airport, or enter a store with security cameras, a computer is trying to find your face. 👀 Today, it's your turn! Instead of being detected, you'll become the detector 💪💪💪 ⭐ This video is brought to you by HubSpot! Check out their FREE AI Coding Showdown comparing OpenAI Codex and Claude Code: https://clickhubspot.com/06f823 Big thanks to HubSpot for sponsoring this video and providing the guide for free! 🙌 In this beginner-friendly tutorial, we'll build a real-time face detection system from scratch using Python, OpenCV, and YOLO. Along the way, you'll learn how to detect many other objects in images and real-time video streams. We'll even combine multiple YOLO AI models to detect different things all at once! 🤩 📚 What you'll learn 📚 How OpenCV reads images and video streams from different cameras Installing and using Ultralytics YOLO Detecting faces and objects in real time Setting up and using community-trained YOLO models Running multiple YOLO models on the same image or video feed Running your YOLO workflows on GPU for maximum performance 🛠️ Tools Used 🛠️ Python OpenCV Ultralytics YOLO JupyterLab Miniconda (Windows) CUDA (Optional) ⏰ Timestamps ⏰ 01:15 - Install Miniconda, OpenCV & YOLO on Windows 03:06 - Load and Display Images with OpenCV 05:03 - Detect Objects in Images with YOLO 07:45 - Install a Community YOLO Face Detection Model 10:43 - Combine Multiple YOLO Models on the Same Image 12:40 - Read Live Webcam Video with OpenCV 14:50 - Real-Time Face Detection with YOLO 17:42 - Run YOLO on GPU with CUDA 20:08 - Final Face Detection Demo 20:43 - Thanks for Watching! 🎥 Related Videos From the Tutorial 🎥 ⭐ Full Guide to Anaconda:    • Anaconda Beginners Guide for Linux and Win...   ⭐ CUDA Simply Explained:    • CUDA Simply Explained - GPU vs CPU Paralle...   💻 Source Code & Resources 💻 Check out the pinned comment! 📌 You'll find everything you need there, including: Demo images used in this tutorial Miniconda installation YOLO-Face model PyTorch CUDA installation GitHub repository 📝 Summary 📝 Learn how to build a real-time face detection system in Python from scratch using OpenCV and YOLO.
