Face detection for cats in JavaScript

I was thinking that cameras should have this feature - they can detect humans smiling at the camera, but what we really need is a camera that can take a photo of a cat _while_ its looking in the right direction dammit

I love it. Hopefully I'll be able to integrate it as chrome extension so I can block all cats on reddit and other sites.

We made a fun website using this library – <a href="http://mycatandi.com" rel="nofollow">http://mycatandi.com</a>

A js anti cat photo-bombing library! My cat likes to get into every pic we take around the living room (not sure why). I hope this and other technologies could help serve as a strategic deterrent against him - we're on to you :)

It did not detect any cats in this picture:<p><a href="http://www.fantom-xp.com/wallpapers/20/Four_kittens.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.fantom-xp.com/wallpapers/20/Four_kittens.jpg</a>

I wonder how well this would defeat microsoft asirra <a href="http://research.microsoft.com/asirra" rel="nofollow">http://research.microsoft.com/asirra</a>

Thankyou!!!<p>I'm going to test this on my 2 lovely kittens (almost a year old now, so not really kittens anymore) and see how it goes.<p>It would be nice if Google (and maybe Facebook) enabled something like this by default, considering the meme-level quantity of kitty photos they must deal with. I'd love it if Google+ tagged my kitties automatically :-)

I'm pretty sure the Intercat overlords are not going to be pleased. I was thinking about going to TXJS this weekend but think I'll stay home and build my feline shrine to Intercats instead.

This could be really useful if it could be integrated with some hardware to make cat doors that open only for your cat... or at least <i>a</i> cat...

Wasn't this also on HN a few months ago? Or a year perhaps. I definitely remember some sort of cat face detection in Javascript.

Okay, stupid question, what would it take to re-code this for human face detection?

This makes it to the front page once every few months
