SMART ATTENDENCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING FACE DETECTION

Abstract

This project involves building an attendance system which utilizes facial recognition to mark the presence, time-in, and time-out of Students. It covers areas such as facial detection, alignment, and recognition, along with the development of a web application to cater to various use cases of the system such as registration of new Students, addition of photos to the training dataset, viewing attendance reports, etc. This project intends to serve as an efficient substitute for traditional manual attendance systems. It can be used in corporate offices, schools, and organizations where security is essential. Facial recognition is becoming more prominent in our society. It has made major progress in the field of security. It is a very effective tool that can help low enforcers to recognize criminals and software companies are leveraging the technology to help users access the technology. This technology can be further developed to be used in other avenues such as ATMs, accessing confidential files, or other sensitive materials. Using this system any corporate offices, school and organization can replace their traditional way of maintaining attendance of the Students and can also generate their availability (presence) report throughout the Month.
