Face ID login program

Inspiration

The idea for this project came from noticing how traditional login methods like usernames and passwords can be both boring and insecure — especially in university environments where thousands of students need access. I wanted to implement facial recognition as a modern, secure, and convenient login method to improve the student experience.

What it does

This system allows students to log in using facial recognition. Once logged in, each student can access a personalized dashboard that includes:

Attendance records
Grades for all subjects
Registered courses
Final GPA and academic performance
All academic data in one centralized place

How we built it

We built the system using:

React and TypeScript for the frontend
Supabase for database management and authentication
Python + OpenCV for the facial recognition engine
API integration to connect frontend and backend
A clean and user-friendly UI designed for students

Challenges we ran into

Ensuring facial recognition was both fast and accurate
Securing student data and protecting user accounts
Integrating face recognition with the user authentication system
Designing an intuitive interface that presents academic data clearly

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Successfully integrating modern face recognition into a functional web system
Creating a platform that serves real student needs
Designing an attractive, easy-to-use interface that displays all important academic data
