sudo apt-get install python-dev
sudo apt-get install python-opencv
sudo apt-get install libopencv-dev
sudo apt-get install python-numpy
sudo apt-get install python-scipy
sudo apt-get install libatlas-dev
sudo apt-get install libatlas3gf-base

You will have to run this command every time before trackface.py:

sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2
