Python is fully installed with numpy and opencv sans virtual environment. Plugged in my baby webcam and was able to capture video and stills. I started digging into doing the actual recognition, but I had to compile stuff from scratch (or at least my initial look around didn’t come up with the executable I needed). I then whipped out Visual Studio for the first time in my life, and Microsoft managed to do something that was a pleasant surprise. I pointed it at the force folder and it wallet to build everything after automatically running the cmake configure script. This was a total surprise. To be clear though, yesterday Microsoft also asked me my opinion on a desktop notification. I answered. Sternly. So yesterday was more like Mehcrosoft.
I might have parts show up today, but I have other things to do so I’ll probably have to wait until later if not another day to start pushing things.
