Nude.js - Nudity detection with javascript and HTMLCanvas

Today I came across an interesting page on nudity detection with javascript and HTMLCanvas. nude.js is an open source script that would be pretty useful for client side nudity detection for child filter and other social media platforms.

nude.js is a JavaScript implementation of a nudity scanner based on approaches from research papers. HTMLCanvas makes it possible to analyse image data and afterwards decide whether it should be displayed or not. The detection algorithm runs at the client, therefore it's possible (with user interaction) to display the image even if it's identified as nude (false positive).

you can download the nude.js from HERE.
