A research project that replaces faces in driving videos to protect privacy.



This research project replaces faces in self-driving car videos. The goal is to hide who was recorded while keeping the footage useful for training driving models.

## How it works [#how-it-works]

MediaPipe Face Mesh finds landmarks on the original and replacement faces. The project splits those landmarks into triangles, and OpenCV warps each replacement triangle onto the original face. This keeps the pose and expression aligned. You can also test it live with a webcam.

## Stack [#stack]

* Python, OpenCV, MediaPipe, NumPy.
* Python scripts for capture and mesh tooling.
