+# Facial Feature Detection
+
+## About Project
+In this project, I am making use dlib library and OpenCV to mimic the facial filters like Snapchat or Instagram. In today's time, facial filters have garnered immense popularity amongst the millennials and Gen-Z alike. 
+
+Currently, the project supports basic filter props such as moustache, funny eyes and santa claus. But the possibilities of different facial filters are endless.
+
+## Implementation
+
+I have used pretrained weights to predict the facial landmarks of the person(s) on the live webcam. Dlib library is used to load these weights and make the prediction. 
+
+Please refer to the picture below for the different facial landmarks that can be predicted using ```shape_predictor_68_face_landmarks.dat``` file.

+
+Once the landmarks are identified, I am using OpenCV to load the filter props, resize them based on the size of face and then, superimpose them over the live-streaming frame for filter like effect.
+
+Filter to be applied is selected using function argument.
