Smart Lock using Image Recognition

Abstract

In the 21st century, for a digital lifestyle in a smart city, security is one of the core ingredients to ensure digital continuity. The existing smart security technologies use a smartphone, card, and fingerprint that need additional devices to carry or can spread out infectious diseases. Now it is high time to think about an additional device free and more time-consuming technique. So, an intelligent system is proposed in this paper to secure our doors with face authentication. The human face is a unique and easy identifying feature of a human. The registered user’s image is saved in the device as a dataset to train the lock. The system recognizes the registered faces very fast and controls the hardware part to be unlocked. The system is capable of detecting and recognizing human faces from a real-time video. It is usable in the door lock, car lock, hutch, and many more security purposes.
