Image Analysis: detect faces and draw a rectangle around each identified face

Node-red flow that analyses an image to find faces and then draws a colored rectangle around each face detected. If a person is identified, his name is also displayed next to the rectangle.

The image URL is entered via a GET request query parameter: http://mybluemix.net/image?url=http://domain.com/image.jpg

Dependencies: Alchemy Image Analysis Node
