ABSTRACT:Background: The old ways of taking attendance like calling out names or using cards have some problems. People can pretend to be someone it takes a lot of work to manage and the information is not always correct.The goal of this paper is to introduce a system called Smart Facial Attendance System that uses artificial intelligence to take attendance automatically. It uses computers to find and recognize faces in real time.The system uses computer models like FaceNet and Support Vector Machine, to make sure it recognizes faces correctly. It also uses a website to manage everything.The system can take videos. Get the information it needs from them.The results show that the system is very good at recognizing faces it got it right 98.7 percent of the time. It can also do it quickly in just 0.34 seconds.The system works well even when the face is not fully visible or at an angle.In conclusion the new Smart Facial Attendance System is much better, than the ways. It stops people from pretending to be someone and makes it easier to manage. It is also an option because it is contactless and secure.Keywords: Facial Recognition, Attendance System, Deep Learning, FaceNet, OpenCV, SVM Classifier, Biometric Authentication Real-Time Processing.
