Face Recognition and Detection for Attendance Application

Face identification is one of those challenging problems and up to date, there is no technique that provides a robust solution to all situations and different applications that face identification may encounter. This paper aims at designing an intelligent security system using Face Recognition technology for identifying the user and providing attendance for the user. The system gives feedback on user identification through dialog boxes on PC. The Intelligent system proposed makes use of Mat lab software to achieve the task. The user on facing the USB web camera, the image is captured and compared with facial database present in PC through Lab VIEW software. The feedback on the identity information is displayed on the PC through dialog boxes. The successful users with their verification from database their names are displayed in LCD display which is interfaced with Arduino and their details are stored in excel sheet with their particulars. The users whose face not captured treated as absent or leave and they are intimated a message saying they are absent or leave for that day through GSM module interfaced through Arduino.
