A facial recognition system is a computer application for automatically identifying or verifying a person from a digital image or a video frame

from a video source

Facial scan process flow

With all biometrics 5-steps 1. sample capture 2. alignment 3. normalization 4. representation 5. matching define the process flow of facial scan technology.

1. sample capture - When the system is attached to a video surveillance system, the recognition software searches the field of view of a video camera for faces. If there is a face in the view, it is detected within a fraction of a second.

2. Alignment - Once a face is detected, the system determines the head's position, size and pose. A face needs to be turned at least 35 degrees toward the camera for the system to register it.

3. Normalization -The image of the head is scaled and rotated so that it can be registered and mapped into an appropriate size and pose. Normalization is performed regardless of the head's location and distance from the camera. Light does not impact the normalization process.

4. Representation - The system translates the facial data into a unique code also called as template. This coding process allows for easier comparison of the newly acquired facial data to stored facial data the template is much smaller than the image from which it is drawn whereas quality facial images generally require 150-300 kb, the templates are approx. 1300 bytes or less than 1/100th of original.

5. Matching - The newly acquired facial data is compared to the stored data and (ideally) linked to at least one stored facial representation.

5 Benefits obtained from Face-Recognition Time Attendance System: While using the face-recognition technology based time attendance system, you can get a number of benefits which could enhance the management process. Few of them are listed below: o Maintains Overall Records: An automated face recognition time attendance system maintains the overall presence record of the students in the organization along with delails.

o Get Rid of Pen & Paper System: The newest technology helps in replacing the older paper register method efficiently. It also saves money that the organization used to spend behind manual security guards and then also it was lacking satisfaction. Facerecognition time attendance system gives better maintenance of data as, it supports the electronic medium of data storage. o save time , save money The face-recognition time attendance system helps in saving time, eliminates the manual mistakes. Since the face recognition system controls every single event electronically therefore, reduces the possibility of error. The attendance is noted down electronically therefore it saves time of the teACHER o Do not have to remember! Once you have implemented the device there is no issue of remembering anything as, the device is reliable enough to be trusted. Just set the device according to your organizational requirement and enjoy the services.
