Make A Security Camera With Python

Welcome back to another video! In this video, I'm going to show how to create a security camera system using OpenCV. We'll be detecting a face or body in the footage so a webcam or external camera that can connect to your computer is needed. We'll be using that camera through OpenCV and detecting a face or body before recording.
