Machine Learning Algorithm based Ration Dispensing System using Raspberry Pi

The Ration Distribution System is one of India's most important economic measures. The primary goal is to distribute food grains to the people at a reasonable cost. Because every job in the ration store requires physical labour, the ration Distribution System is one of the most contentious systems involving corruption and illegal smuggling of supplies. The main objective here is to automate the process of the distribution so that malpractices can be reduced. Earlier proposed systems with RFID or Biometric techniques have drawbacks in accuracy and those techniques could get easily tampered. In biometric technique there is chances of fading of fingerprints and can be easily copied. Also RFIDs are not always as accurate or dependable as barcode scanners, and things such as metal and moisture can disrupt with the signal. This proposed system will use a Machine Learning algorithm called Histogram of Gradient for face detection. User gets ration when the image is recognised, if the tolerance value is appropriate then the image from the manually created database is checked in real time and is said to be a match or else not a match. It is an added feature in the existing automatic ration distribution system such as Biometric identification, RFID based systems.
