Face detector notifier

A system that sends an email with an image attached if a face appears on camera.

How to run

python face_detector.py

A stream of the camera will appear. When a face be detected, it will send and email in background.

Change the variable frequency in face_detector.py to the minimal amount of minutes you want between each email.

And edit the config.json file to provide the sender email (the email the images will be sent from -it has to be a valid Gmail which you are able to login in using the very same email and password you provided), the sender password and the receiver email (the email address where the images will be sent to).

Attention

DO NOT set the frequenty to zero or remove any limitations on that. It will cause the software to send an email for each frame where a face was detected. It could be a lot of e-mails and sending to much emails at once certantly is not a good idea.
