Intelligent Door Controller Using Deep Learning-Based Network Pruned Face Recognition

Nowadays, our home is designed with various technologies which have increased our living comfort and offering more flexibility. Installing various technology in our Home makes it a smart home and we also call this installation process Home Automation. The popularity of Home Automation systems is increasing rapidly and it develops the quality of living. Home automation offers automatic light, fan, temperature, etc. control and also an automatic alarming system to alert the people, etc. Already there are various techniques have been used for implementing Home Automation. Here, in this paper, an intelligent door controller, an application of home automation is presented by using deep learning techniques. An intelligent door basically opens automatically and closes after a predefined time based on the person coming in front of the door. If a person is known then the door will be opened and after his/her entrance the door will be closed automatically. And if the person is not known then the door will remain closed. Here to identify the person, the person’s face is recognized by using deep learning. As well ass, Arduino and Servo motors are used to control the door opening or closing.
