Abstract

In a vast majority of fields, the use of facial recognition for authentication is expanding. In this information age, authentication has become vital, and the need for faster and more secure methods of user authentication has been on the rise. The introduction of image processing technologies such as OpenCV has increased society’s reliance on face recognition. Using blockchain, information could be stored in blocks throughout the blockchain network. Blockchain is an extremely secure means for storing and protecting data from intruders. It is a highly disruptive technology that has the ability to alter every plane of society. This paper intends to implement opensource computer vision (OpenCV) to construct a facial detection model that will be employed in a blockchain-secured Attendance Monitoring System. It will not only automate the attendance procedure but also give the system unassailable security. This system will take a live video feed from a camera using OpenCV and identify the faces of students and record their attendance along with the entry time. The data will be kept in a distributed way over the blockchain network that will be accessible to everyone, but data cannot be manipulated.
