Face Detection and Recognition for Smart Attendance System using Raspberry Pi

Electronics and Communication Engineering

Security is the major threat to an organization or institute that is why there is a need of several specially trained person to attain the desired security to overcome the declining security condition in the country. The person as human being makes mistake that might affect the security, hence there is a need for facial recognition system which is fast, accurate and highly secured real time system which reduces the human errors while taking attendance. Face recognition is one of the most important biometric pattern recognition which is used in broad spectra applications. The main purpose of this paper is to develop face detection and recognition for smart attendance system. This system will eliminate the proxy attendance, saves the time and reduces mistakes while taking attendance. It maintains the student documents and reduces the human errors. Since the inception of Pattern Recognition & Image processing researchers across the globe continue to propose newer facial recognition algorithms. Each of the facial algorithms has its own pros and cons, hence in this paper we intend to select a best algorithm to propose a new face detection and recognition model.
