REU Systems Integration Project:2D Facial Recognition (iAttend) Midterm Project Presentation 7/11/2012 5 Minutes
Project Summary Integrate off-the-shelf components to develop system for automating seminar attendance. The idea is that as a student enters the room facial detection & recognition software is used to extract an image for comparison with images of registered students.
System Components • Camera, 5 megapixel, 1394b • Pressure mat, system trigger, USB • Visual Studio • OpenCV (no face recognition) • FlyCapture SDK (camera software) • PittPatt SDK (Pittsburgh Pattern Recognition)
Progress • Installed system in lab • Integrated OpenCV, FlyCapture, and PittPatt libraries into single Visual Studio project • Used SDK’s extract/save image when doorway entered
Next Steps • Develop prototype • Find volunteers • Test system
Conclusion Use this project as a starting point for post-baccalaureate/graduate-level research and development?
