Automatic Door Access System Using Face Recognition

Abstract

Most doors are controlled by people using keys, security cards, a password, or a pattern to unlock the door. The goal of this project is to improve door safety in sensitive locations such as robust rooms using face detection and recognition. It consists of three subsystems: face detection, face recognition, and automatic door access control. The door will open automatically for the known person due to the command of the microcontroller. On the other hand, the alarm will ring for the unknown person. The advantage of this system is that face recognition does not require to be touched with any hardware. The face is detected automatically by using the face detection technique and the entire face recognition is completed without touching with any hardware. It allows easy construction of surveillance support systems with a high degree of reliability and reduces burdens for surveillance. The system is designed to do the kind of work a human security guard would normally do.
