Decentralized Web Based Identity System Using Blockchain with Artificial Intelligence Face Detection

This research successfully demonstrates a decentralized identity authentication framework combining blockchain technology and AI-based facial recognition. By storing only cryptographic facial hashes on the Ethereum blockchain, the system preserves privacy while ensuring secure and tamper-resistant authentication. The integration of MetaMask, smart contracts, and AI-based face verification provides a robust passwordless authentication mechanism. Experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach in enhancing security, reducing identity theft risks, and empowering users with control over their digital identities. The system offers significant potential for adoption in banking, healthcare, education, and e-governance applications.
