Object detection

Hi, I'm new to this site and just after some general answers.

If anyone could give me some pointers as to what packages I should be looking into would be greatly appreciated.

I need to hook up a wireless video camera to be able to send a live video stream or images at a minimum rate of 10fps. I need a program to be able to capture these frames direct from this stream and perform some type of pattern analysis to check if the symbols A B C and D are present.

Just wonder if this IS possible and what programs, approach i should be using. Just need a nudge into the right direction.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Kero,

Certainly check out the openCV library and its examples. They even have an example of facial recognition.

OpenCV library:
