kivyFaceRecognition Example (Based on Kivys "Camera Example")
====================================================

This example demonstrates a simple use of the camera with face detection.
It shows a window with buttons "Play", "Face detection" and "Capture".
Note that not finding a camera, perhaps because gstreamer is not installed,
will throw an exception during the kv language processing.
