Abstract -
The system named as Real Time Face and QR Code Verification System for Attendance and Access Control is created in order to facilitate attendance and to provide security at the same time. The conventional attendance techniques suffer from a number of disadvantages such as cheating of one student by another, error during recording, and most importantly lack of proper security. Therefore, the conventional techniques cannot be taken as highly reliable sources. Initially, we did not have any particular reason behind the selection of this topic, but rather decided to test it out randomly. In our system, we adopted a combination approach wherein we used face detection technique and QR code scanning simultaneously. Upon the arrival of an individual, the face of the individual is detected by the camera and compared against the database of images, while QR code is read simultaneously. In case both face and QR code belong to the same person, the system will let the person pass; otherwise, it won't allow that person entry into the building. We have also incorporated face detection capability into our system, which will help it detect whether the person attempting to access the building is a live person or simply a picture/video. This feature will go some way in minimizing cheating on the part of the user. All the collected information will be stored in the database, making its management easy and convenient. Though the system is prone to certain limitations, most problems associated with the traditional method of collecting attendance have been eliminated. During the testing of the system with different individuals, it worked quite effectively for us. The system may be implemented in educational institutions and offices among other similar premises where attendance and security are concerned.
