Hi, I have installed picroft successfully on my raspberry Pi and would like to add on top the openCV computer vision AI for face detection. Anybody have mycroft and OpenCV installed together? Thanks

There is an older thread where a community user implemented a [proof of concept for face recognition on Mycroft](https://community.openconversational.ai/t/prrof-of-concept-face-recognition-on-mycroft/8256).

Another user (don’t remember the name) implemented a face detection for Mycroft activation replacing the wake-word.
