Face Recognition based Attendance System API MySQL

The document presents a face recognition-based attendance system that automates attendance tracking using Python, OpenCV, and MySQL. It captures faces via webcam, processes them for recognition, and logs attendance in real-time through a Flask API. The system aims to provide a secure, scalable, and efficient alternative to traditional manual attendance methods, while also addressing limitations and future enhancements.

Face Recognition Based

Attendance System
Using Python, OpenCV, API, and
MySQL
Presented by: [Your Name]
Introduction

• Manual attendance systems are outdated and prone to errors.


• Our system uses face recognition for secure, automated
attendance.
• Includes API integration and MySQL for better scalability.
Objective

• Automate attendance using face recognition and OpenCV.


• Store attendance in MySQL for persistent storage.
• Enable real-time access using APIs.
Technologies Used

• Python
• OpenCV
• face_recognition Library
• MySQL
• Flask API
• Tkinter (optional GUI)
System Architecture

Webcam Capture Face Detection Face Recognition

Flask API MySQL Database


Working Process

• Capture face using webcam.


• Detect and recognize face using OpenCV and
face_recognition.
• Send recognized face data to Flask API.
• Store attendance in MySQL database with timestamp.
Code Overview

• face_recognition.face_encodings() for encoding faces.


• OpenCV for webcam and image processing.
• Flask REST API to handle attendance entries.
• MySQL Connector to insert attendance data into DB.
Sample Code:
import face_recognition, cv2, mysql.connector, requests

# Capture face, compare with DB


# If match, send POST to Flask API
# Flask API inserts into MySQL with timestamp
Output and Results

• Live webcam feed with recognition display.


• Flask API logs recognized faces in real-time.
• Attendance saved in MySQL with Name, Date, Time.
Advantages

• Secure and scalable using MySQL DB.


• Flexible integration via API.
• Accurate and real-time recognition.
• Modern solution for institutions and offices.
Limitations

• Lighting and camera quality affect accuracy.


• Requires internet or network for API.
• Sensitive to face orientation changes.
Future Scope

• Mobile app access via API.


• Cloud-based face data storage.
• Support for masked face recognition.
• Dashboard analytics for admins.
Conclusion

• Smart attendance using face recognition, API & database.


• Efficient and secure solution replacing manual methods.
• Scalable for enterprise or campus deployment.
