Is there a good C# API to detect Face and Body motions. I am trying to achieve something that requires it.

Have you looked at http://www.face-rec.org/algorithms/ ?

this link looks like for Face detection, can I use that for whole Body detection?

OpenCV is the best free library for your case. http://code.google.com/p/opencvdotnet/

Good luck

You mean the API has every function I am going to need?
Umair Ashraf
It should actually. It has built it object detection and tracking modules. Object detector can be trained to find different kinds of objects and the API comes with a face detection sample.

@Umair How was your luck with the API. I did search a lot for a nice one and openCV was the most usable. if you could find a more specific library please share it.

@Honibis thanks for your checking. I am trying to start that project but I am being distracted by other jobs around me. I am keen to start this project. I have planned to start this now and would pursue it slowly so the first step isn't to look for an API. As soon as I get done steps, I will let you know what suited me the best. Thanks again.

Had mixed success with the face detection built into OpenCV. It's not very accurate, even with a lot of tweaking.
