PROBLEM FIXED:
- White screen issue caused by complex face tracking
- Occlusion detection was interfering with normal operation
- Face swap was getting blocked completely
SOLUTION:
- Removed all complex face tracking from process_frame
- Simplified live_face_swapper to basic operation
- Back to simple, reliable face detection and swapping
- No more white screen or blocking issues
CURRENT BEHAVIOR:
- Face swap works exactly like original Deep-Live-Cam
- Simple face detection + enhanced quality swapping
- No tracking interference or occlusion blocking
- Maintains performance improvements and quality enhancements
PERFORMANCE KEPT:
- Enhanced color matching still active
- Quality improvements still working
- FPS optimizations still in place
- Just removed the problematic tracking system
RESULT:
- Face swap should work normally now
- No more white screen issues
- Stable and reliable operation
- Ready for immediate use
NEW FEATURES:
- Face tracking with Kalman filter for stabilization
- Occlusion detection and handling (hands/objects)
- Advanced face mask creation with landmarks
- Stabilized face swapping (reduced jitter)
- Smart blending for occluded areas
OCCLUSION IMPROVEMENTS:
- Detects when hands/objects cover the face
- Maintains face swap on face area only
- Skin detection for hand recognition
- Edge detection for object boundaries
- Smooth transitions during occlusion
STABILIZATION FEATURES:
- Position smoothing with configurable parameters
- Landmark stabilization for consistent tracking
- Face template matching for verification
- Confidence-based tracking decisions
- Automatic tracking reset capabilities
NEW FILES:
- modules/face_tracker.py - Advanced face tracking system
- test_improvements.py - Demo script for new features
ENHANCED FILES:
- modules/processors/frame/face_swapper.py - Occlusion-aware swapping
- modules/live_face_swapper.py - Integrated tracking system
USAGE:
