Facial Recognition in C++, from scratch

[Ana Gheorghi a]

I wanna implement an algorithm for Facial Recognition in C++ with the help of Viola-Jones, aka Adaboost, but without using OpenCV or any other similar library. I wanna do it all from scratch. Any tips? Everybody gives me ambiguous answers. P.S.: I started the whole thing by creating a RGB to grayscale Bitmap conversion.

A way to accomplish this is use the source code from a library that do that, which is huge work :) ... even is a school work, I guess it can be used OpenCV directly, most of them are free.
