Overview
At its core, the project employs advanced face recognition algorithms to identify individuals from images captured through cameras or uploaded files. The system is capable of recognizing faces with high accuracy, even in diverse lighting conditions and varying angles. Upon successful identification, the attendance of the recognized individuals is automatically recorded, eliminating the need for manual marking or sign-in sheets.
