Not with IM, YET, though it is something some of us are looking at. Basically speicific algorithms for circle and line detection needs to be implemented.

Yes interesting but face detection has been around for years and I am told based on an algorithm created in 2002?

What is new about this apart from using Python which I would suggest is limited in appeal although it seems to be the new "in" language?

We already have line detection (-hough-lines) and a circle version would be easy to add. It is on my list to prototype with a script. But I think there is more to it than just that. I think skin color must also be detected. OpenCV has a face detection routine, as I recall, one may want to try that.
