Face recognition for security efficiency in managing and monitoring visitors of an organization

This paper discussing on a system that able to manage and monitor the visitors of an organization using face recognition as an authentication method. After the authentication and verification process, valid visitor will be printed with visitor card that will print out the face image of the visitor, date and time of visiting and the name of the person to be visited. Face recognition visitors management system (FRVMS) is proposed to enhance the security of an organization from outsiders that entering the building illegally for certain purposes such as spying or stealing the organization assets. Centralize system enable managing and monitoring process become more efficient. Cost of development is also taking into consideration as this system is not requiring any extra devices. Face recognition is using web camera that is already embedded with the computer. Several similar systems and technologies were reviewed and analyzed before designing the system. A system framework was proposed and prototype was developed. System advantages are highlighted but the main advantages of this system are to enhance the security and cutting cost of system development.
