Making Fun: Computer Vision Hair Trimmer

From the creator

Part of what makes me a maker is that I prefer to do things myself when I can. I even cut my own hair. I figured I could use computer vision to track my head and the trimmer, and besides, I have long been looking for an excuse to learn about computer vision. I set out to build a trimmer that I could blindly run up and down the back of my neck, and have it automatically turn on or off in accordance with its position.
