When we’re sick we all use one thing a lot; facial tissues. We use them without even thinking about how they’re made or what was needed to make them. We just blow our noses and throw them away. You can tell how Eco foe your tissue just by what kind it is. Is it a two ply or a three ply? Is there special things in it like Vicks or not? The short life of a facial tissue starts out as a tree.

react accordingly. For biometric systems that use faces as non-intrusive input modules‚ it is imperative to locate faces in a scene before any recognition algorithm can be applied. An intelligent visionbased user interface should be able to tell the attention focus of the user (i.e.‚ where the user is looking at) in order to respond accordingly. To detect facial features accurately for applications such as digital cosmetics‚ faces need to be located and registered first to facilitate further processing
