Manifesto

This the core of the app, it's written with Python and OpenCv. What this script does is basically tracking persons moving in front of the camera and assigning them ids, then send those ids to the Kafka instance that will send them over to the server. There is also the Prototxt file which define the model architecture (i.e., the layers themselves) and caffemodel file which contains the weights for the actual layers
