In computer science , real-time computing (RTC) is the study of hardware and software systems that are subject to a "real-time constraint"—i.e., operational deadlines from event to system response. By contrast, a non-real-time system is one for which there is no deadline, even if fast response or high performance is desired or even preferred. source: wikipedia

Do you already have a programming background? It depends on how deep your understanding in software development. If you don't have any programming background yet, 3 months will almost be impossible. If you do have a deep programming background, it is possible. But it also depends on how far your understanding is with facial recognition. As far as I could remember, it's the hardest thing to do in multimedia comparison (shape, color, text, sound, nature, face, people etc). I forgot the correct term to use. It depends on how fast you could research existing libraries to help you with the facial recognition. In my opinion, given a deep programming background, it is possible, but it would not be easy. my two cents.
