Inspiration
In our world security has proven to be a problem everywhere. In schools, work, and even homes! When hearing about these different issues I decided to take a step in that direction. I wanted to improve our security systems with facial recognition.
What it does
It uses facial recognition to check if the person trying to get in is the right person. It will mark their name and the time they were seen entering.
How we built it
I built it using a couple of python libraries such as face_recognition to detect the face, opencv-python to set up the camera system, and other pre built libraries for simpler tasks.
Challenges we ran into
While building this I ran into many errors with my code when working with the face_recognition library trying to encode images. Also, the positioning of the different elements on the camera window when working with opencv.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I am proud of the fact I was able to use prior experiences and new knowledge to build this in the span of 24 hours.
What we learned
I learned how to use face_recognition and how to compare it to a real life camera.
What's next for Face ID Security
Face ID Security is going to be implemented into society with new and better technologies.
