Description

  • face_recognition version: Latest
  • Python version: 3.5
  • Operating System: Ubuntu 14.06
Description

I recompiled dlib to compensate for my caveman cpu which doesn't support AVX instructions. Afterwards I run the face_rec_webcam_faster and i'm met with the error below

What I Did
usr/bin/python3.5 "/home/deeplearning/Desktop/face_recognition examples/facerec_from_webcam_faster.py"


`OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (ssize.width > 0 && ssize.height > 0) in resize, file /home/deeplearning/opencv-3.2.0/modules/imgproc/src/imgwarp.cpp, line 3492
Traceback (most recent call last):

Research direction

Start with facerec_from_webcam_faster.py, especially line 31 where cv2.resize(frame, ...) raises the assertion, and run the webcam example in the reported Ubuntu and Python environment. Inspect the frame source and the OpenCV/dlib setup before the resize call. Done means identifying and documenting the cause of the empty frame or providing a verified fix for this example.
