 ABSTRACT
In this project, the main purpose is to build a face recognition-based attendance monitoring
system for an educational institution to upgrade the current attendance system into more
efficient and effective as compared to before. Face recognition is a method of identifying or
verifying the identity of an individual using their face. Attendance is the most important
thing to record the presence of someone. The presence of someone in an organization is a
sign that the person is carrying out their obligations to come to the organization. Usually,
most organizations using system attendance done manually. It can be signed or called one by
one. And some organizations used systems are biometric techniques that attendance is done
but this technique has some problems. E.g. time-consuming, the student has to wait in queue
for giving attendance and one point touching every student that's reasons maybe one student
transfer some disease from another student So, smart Attendance using Real-Time Face
Recognition is a real-world solution that comes with day-to-day activities of handling student
attendance systems. Face recognition-based attendance system is a process of recognizing the
student's face for taking attendance by using face-based high-definition monitor video and
other information technology. To detect real-time human face Haar cascade is used the
matched face is then used to mark attendance in the laboratory, in our case. In this project,
face databases will be created to pump data into the recognizer algorithm. Then, during the
attendance-taking session, faces will be compared against the database to seek identity. When
an individual is identified, their attendance will be taken down automatically saving
necessary information into an excel sheet. At the end of the day, the excel sheet containing
attendance information regarding all individuals is mailed to the respective faculty.

 ACKNOWLEDGMENT
At the very beginning, we would like to express my deepest gratitude to the Almighty Allah
for giving us the ability and the strength to finish the task successfully within the schedule
time.

We are auspicious that we had the kind association as well as supervision of Arifur
Rahaman, Lecturer & Coordinator, Department of Computer Science and Engineering,
Sonargaon University whose hearted and valuable support with best concern and direction
acted as necessary recourse to carry out our project.

We would like to convey our special gratitude to Prof. Dr. M. A Mabud, Dean, Faculty of
Science and Engineering for his kind concern and precious suggestions.

We are also thankful to all our teachers during our whole education, for exposing us to the
beauty of learning.

Finally, our deepest gratitude and love to my parents for their support, encouragement, and
endless love.
