FACE RECOGNITION BASED-ATTENDANCE SYSTEM USING IOT BASED PLATFORM NICKCLESTOR NIGEL MADIYEM NOOR AZLIANA BINTI MOHD NOOR (SUPERVISOR) Abstract A manual attendance system is widely used in educational institutions, but it is prone to inefficiencies and errors in attendance data. Additionally, this method consumes a considerable amount of time for tracking attendance. To address these challenges associated with manual attendance, a face-recognition-based attendance system has been developed. This prototype project integrates a webcam camera and a Mini-PC for face detection and seamless attendance recording. The camera module is utilized to capture faces, while the Mini-PC handles image processing. For local databases, an IPS 7-inch display has been incorporated to showcase recognized faces of students. The prototype was developed using the open-source IDE application PyCharm. The camera identifies faces, and the Mini-PC then initiates the face recognition algorithm to recognize faces and record attendance. The attendance status can be accessed through a generated URL. This project successfully automates attendance using facial recognition algorithms, offering a straightforward attendance checking solution. To enhance the prototype, a depth sensor could be installed to capture accurate face data. This sensor would project and analyze thousands of invisible dots, creating a depth map of the face to ensure the system detects only real-life faces. PROJECT ABSTRACT INNOVATION I.R. 4.0 IR2
