VCallZer
VCallZer copied to clipboard
Project that facilitates anonymity while connected over a video call, by concealing the face as well as modulating the voice.
π Introduction
- The project was initiated during Winter of Code 1.0 by DSC IIIT Kalyani and is currently under development.
- The idea behind this is to facilitate a video calling service built with python sockets(IPv4) and Open-CV, which replaces the users voice by a robotic/AI voice and the video by a neon projection of the users face on a black screen for anonimity purposes.
