Note this currently only works on Windows (because of the beep)

1. Download and extract the .zip: https://github.com/jamesdeluk/Face-Distance-Measurement/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
2. Install Python 3.11 (not 3.12 or later): https://www.python.org/downloads/
3. Optional: Create and activate a virtual environment: python -m venv Face-Distance-Measurement-env then Face-Distance-Measurement-env\Scripts\activate
4. Install requirements: pip install -r Face-Distance-Measurement-main\requirements.txt
5. Edit calculate_f.py with a text editor (e.g. Notepad) and change:
   1. d = 50 to the distance you want to be from the screen (in cm)
   2. W = 6.3 to your pupillary distance (in cm)
6. Run python calculate_f.py and watch the console to see the number for f (also, if you want, look at your beautiful face in the pop-up)
7. Edit measure_distance.py with a text editor (e.g. Notepad) and change:
   1. f = 700 to the number from calculate_f.py
   2. W = 6.3 to your pupillary distance (in cm)
   3. limit = 50 to the distance you want to be alerted to if you get too close (in cm)
8. Run python measure_distance.py

You can also use measure_distance_with_face.py instead (need to make the same Notepad changes) but this will use more power.

In this project, we are going to find the distance between a face and a normal webcam. We will use some basic mathematics along with some AI techniques to achieve decent accuracy. To solidify the concept we will use it in an example project, where the size of the text increases if the person is far away from the screen.
