Application of “Face Recognition” Technology for Attendance Management System

Abstract

The attendance management system is a system that needed for learning activity in a University. In some University, the attendance management system has been used tapping system which using NFC technology. Actually, that attendance management system is effective for managing each of attendance information. However, until now we can still see many cheats for this attendance system. For example, leave their cards to their classmates and tell them to tap for them. For that, one of the many effective solutions to resolve that problem is to add face recognition technology in the current attendance system. In our experiment, we know that to add face recognition to the current attendance management system surely need a camera and also face dataset for the system. At the beginning, we need at least 9 images with different emotions and face positions to let the system recognizes one’s face. To make this system more accurate at recognizing one s face, we would update the face dataset in every face recognizing process.
