Application of 3D face recognition in the access control system
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 December 2021
Abstract
Over the years, face recognition has been the research topic that has attracted many researchers around the world. One of the most significant applications of face recognition is the access control system. The access control system allows authorized persons to enter or exit certain or restricted areas. As a result, it will increase the security situation without over-investment in staff security. The access information can be the identification, time, and location, etc. It can be used to carry out human resource management tasks such as attendance and inspection of employees in a more fair and transparent manner. Although face recognition has been widely used in access control systems because of its better accuracy and convenience without requiring too much user cooperation, the 2D-based face recognition systems also retain many limitations due to the variations in pose and illumination. By analyzing facial geometries, 3D facial recognition systems can theoretically overcome the disadvantages of prior 2D methods and improve robustness in different working conditions. In this paper, we propose the 3D facial recognition algorithm for use in an access control system. The proposed algorithm includes the preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification stages. The application of the proposed access control system is the automatic sliding door, the controller of the system, the web-based monitoring, control, and storage of data.
