I am trying to send the coordinates of a face found with opencv over serial. I got the serial part downpath but I can't figure out how to find the coordinates of the face. I would like to if possible use the facedetection.py example as the base... Any ideas? Thanks ahead of time!

I would like to if possible use the facedetection.py example as the base... Any ideas? Thanks ahead of time!time! Here is the facedetect.py code:

def draw_rects(img, rects, color): for x1, y1, x2, y2 in rects: cv2.rectangle(img, (x1, y1), (x2, y2), color, 2)

    gray = cv2.equalizeHist(gray)

    t = clock()
    rects = detect(gray, cascade)
    vis = img.copy()
    draw_rects(vis, rects, (0, 255, 0))
    for x1, y1, x2, y2 in rects:

    dt = clock() - t

    draw_str(vis, (20, 20), 'time: %.1f ms' % (dt*1000))
    cv2.imshow('facedetect', vis)

    if 0xFF & cv2.waitKey(5) == 27:
        break

Sorry about the formatting... Thanks for all the help so far!
