| Summary: | Authentication is the process of verifying one’s identity, and one of its implementation is in taking attendances in university’s lectures. Attendance taking is a very important matter to every academic institution as a way to examine students’ performance. Signature based attendance taking can be manipulated. Therefore it has problems in verifying the attendance validity. In this final project, a real time eigenface based face recognition is implemented in an application to do attendance taking. The input face image is captured using a webcam. The application itself is built in C#, utilizing EmguCV library. The application is developed using Visual Studio 2015. Face detection is done with Viola-Jones algorithm. The eigenface method is used to do facial recognition on the detected face image. In this final project, a total of 8 testings are done in different conditions. From the testings, it is found that this application can recognize face images with accuracy as high as 90% and as low as 6.67%. This solution can be used as an alternative for real-time attendance taking in an environment with 170 lux light intensity, webcam resolution of 320 x 240 pixel, and the subject standing 1 meter away while not wearing spectacles. The average recognition time is 0.18125 ms. |
