Pose and Illumination Invariant Face Recognition for Automation of Door Lock System

At home, security of door lock is one of the important aspects to be looked upon. Many a times the door lock fails to offer the required security. This paper proposes a door lock system which is based on face recognition. The proposed system will automatically give access to the door only if the system recognizes the face of the person trying to access the door. In case of unauthorized access, the door will remain closed. The algorithm used for face recognition is Local Binary Pattern Histogram(LBPH). Our contribution to automatic door access system is to make it pose and illumination invariant.
