  Using the "Objects" mode

• 

  Songs searched by the "Objects" mode

Inspiration

Our main goal was to use facial recognition to detect emotions and play music based on that.

What it does

There's two modes: facial expression detection, and object detection. The former detects the emotions you're feeling and describes them, and the latter detects an object on the photo and plays a song about it. The app also features text to speech to inform the user about the results of the analysis. There's also a "Don't press me" but that's our little, spooky secret ;););)

How we built it

We built it using python and the integration of google cloud's object and face detection.

Challenges we ran into

• Spotify's python API being outdated. We searched for songs on YouTube instead.
• Building an interface with tkinter.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Had loads of fun!
• Working out how to use google cloud
• Figuring out a bit of tkinter

What we learned

• API usage (Google Cloud Vision)
• Tkinter

What's next for Scannerama

• Integrating it with Spotify or other streaming service.

Built With
