Welcome to the machine...

Sorry, we couldn't resist the joke. This project is a very, very minor simulation of The Machine from Person of Interest, perhaps one of the best TV shows ever.

Here is the original inspiration for the project Reddit!.

You can keep up-to-date with most project developments at our subreddit.

As more development is done, we will continue to update this repository, but for now, here are our targeted goals:

• Facial (isolation)? for the machine; isolating a face from surroundings.
• More UI animations and enhancements, giving a Person of Interest feel for the project.

Future goals include:

• Facial recognition, i.e. recognizing admins, aux admins, and others.
• Multiple platform support for the project; Windows, Linux, Android, IPhone.

Feel free to follow or fork this project. As always, making such a project is a lot of work, and any help is welcome. Please feel free to create issues and contribute to the project.
