Changing the QLabel frameshape
-
Just like to finish off this thread by saying thank you for all the assistance.
By reverse engineering the project I found online, I have managed to far exceed my expectations of my first attempt at Python.
I found a camera tracking .py, and used that as a basis. Hardly any of that original code left now.LONG way to go learning Python, but I now have a working GUI, that communicates with a webcam input, and my Arduino project (Replica of the Sentry gun from Aliens).
Nice to be part of a forum where people assist rather than criticize.
The project.. The Sentry gun has full pan & tilt, controlled by the Python camera looking for a face. Gun pans while searching for target (camera is mounted on the gun). Tracks and fires when locked on (very bright barrel leds, smoke and SFX when firing).
Got the range of the webcam up to 15m using a lens.
Also has full control from the PC, 10m PIR sensor, Ultrasonic for close range etc.Gotta do something during lockdown!

Wow! :)

This is good, shooting looters automatically sounds fun. However, I'm not sure Qt's LGPL licence allows you to use it for murder...
