Faceplate.me

Cover image for Faceplate.me

Faceplate.me combines my passions of coding and Legos to automate and crowdsource the creation of the Hall of Faces.

Live site has implemented these features:

  1. Basic workflow from upload through mosaic algorithm
  2. Camera capture and in-place manual crop
  3. Automatically generate candidates to iterate brightness + contrast settings
  4. Export/save to CSV, LDraw, BrickLink & Studio formats
  5. Project collections to crowdsource & share
