      Hi there.

      A few days ago I startet my MagicMirror Project. So far its been gooing great, but now I want to insert facial recognition to trigger modules, I dont seem to get it work.

      I’ve done the training and it seemed to have worked, but when I try testing my results by python facerecognition.py , I’ll get the following error and I have no idea, how to fix it.

      Using FACE_ALGORITM: 1
      Loading training data...
      Training data loaded!
      No windowing system, writing face.jpg image
      Traceback (most recent call last):
        File "facerecognition.py", line 153, in <module>
          clean_shutdown()
      TypeError: clean_shutdown() takes exactly 2 arguments (0 given)
      

      I am very new to linux, so please bear with me. I will try and provide any needed information.

      Setup:
      raspberry pi 3 b+
      RPI JT CAM P50
      Raspbian Stretch with desktop

      I thank all of you in advance.

      Kind regards.

          I think No windowing system, writing face.jpg image means that you runing the tool in a terminal which have no window. Means he can’t open a window to show you the output of the camera, in this case he will only capture a photo and save it to face.jpg.

            File "facerecognition.py", line 153, in 
              clean_shutdown()
          TypeError: clean_shutdown() takes exactly 2 arguments (0 given)
          

          This error looks like a problem in the module itself.

          def clean_shutdown(signum, frame):
          

          They need two arguments, this looks like a function which are used as a callback and he try to run it directly without any parameters.

          Do you use Phyton 3? Maybe you use the old one and that can’t handle that.

          I use https://github.com/normyx/MMM-Facial-Recognition-OCV3 which include this module and another. Maybe you should try this, it has a good how to. It works well on my Mirror.

          I hope i helped you.

          Kind Regards,
          Thierry

            Hey Thierry

            I am so sorry for not replying any sooner. For some reason (I blame human error on my part), I did not realize, someone has answered my question. Ill give OCV3 a try and will let you know if it works as soon as possible.

            Thank you very much for taking the time, replying to my post.

            Cheers,
            Carsten
