Abstract: The "SMART Attendance System using Facial and OTP Verification" project aims to revolutionize traditional attendance management processes by integrating advanced biometric technologies. In this project, a sophisticated system is developed to automate attendance tracking using facial recognition and OTP verification methods. The system utilizes computer vision algorithms to accurately identify individuals based on their facial features, ensuring reliable attendance recording. Additionally, OTP verification adds an extra layer of security, enhancing the integrity of the system. The project encompasses the design and implementation of the software and hardware components required for seamless operation. Through this innovative solution, organizations can streamline attendance monitoring, improve efficiency, and mitigate identity fraud. The project not only offers a practical application of emerging technologies but also provides valuable insights into biometric authentication systems' development and deployment.
