Control Access to Sensitive Areas

Face recognition can work as a means of access control to ensure that only authorized individuals to get into facilities like labs, boardrooms, bank vaults, training centers for athletes and other sensitive locations.
Our system takes an input image and compares with our database, and if they are matched it shows a welcome message. Our system can be used for security purpose to grant access to a certain number of people to certain places.
So far, our system only works if the images are taken with the same camera because it works only if the pixels of the images are the same. So in real life scenario, we have to take pictures with the same camera to create our database and use the same type of camera in the front door or as a survailance camera so that when it takes the input picture, it has the same pixel as we have in our database.

In addition to making schools safer, face recognition has the potential to track students’ attendance. Traditionally, attendance sheets can allow students to sign another student, who is ditching class, in. But China is already using face recognition to ensure students aren’t skipping class. Tablets are being used to scan students’ faces and match their photos against a database to validate their identities.

A variety of phones including the latest iPhone are now using face recognition to unlock phones. As mentioned earlier, our system so far works, if the pixel of images on the database is the same as the pixel of the input image, so we can use our system to unlock a phone. Because at first, when we register the face at the beginning the front camera is the same when we try to unlock the phone. So the pixel will be the same on both times. So it should work properly.
