Raspberry Pi based face recognition door unlocking system

Abstract

Today we are facing security issues in every aspect. So we have to resolve these issues by using updated technology. In this project, we are using the Face recognition module to capture human images and to compare with stored database images. If it matches with the authorized user then the system will unlock the door by an electromagnetic lock. The need for facial recognition system that is fast and accurate that continuously increasing which can detect intruders and restricts all unauthorized users from highly secured areas and aids in minimizing human error. Face recognition is one of the most Secured System than biometric pattern recognition technique which is used in a large spectrum of application. Nowadays, computers and smart phones have significantly contributed our daily life where numerous computations and adjustments are being accomplished by such technologies. Securing homes has become one of the concerning issues that facing many people. With the expanded duration of leaving the home, homes are being more vulnerable for several threats especially being burgled. Apart from the threats, there are different cases where securing or monitoring the house is very critical such as the existence of elderly individuals or kids with baby sitter. For this manner, home security system or so-called Home OS has been proposed in order to provide more secure arrangements. Such concept aims to turn the home into a smart in which different tasks especially monitoring can be performed remotely. Monitoring and controlling some tasks inside the house would have the ability to provide maximum safety. Recently, electronic door lock systems are one of the most popular security systems that is being installed for many residents and business places. The key characteristic behind such systems lies on the reliability in which the authorized individuals can gain the permission to access the doors throughout a secure system that has an interactive interface. Such analysis takes different forms such as analysing facial image or video stream. The main goal is to develop a prototype that has the ability to simulate the wireless tasks including monitoring and controlling digital door lock. Such system would have the capability to provide secure monitoring of houses.
