How to create an Attendance Registration with face recognition application using python
Introduction
Attendance registration is used in schools and colleges to check whether everyone is present and it is done manually. In this blog, we gonna see how to create an attendance registration application with face recognition using python
Abstract
To create an attendance registration application using python
Headers
from tkinter import *
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
import cv2
import numpy as np
import face_recognition
from tkinter import messagebox
import os
tkinter is used for graphical user interface cryptography is used for encryption and decryption cv2 is to get information from camera numpy is used for arrays face_recognition is used for detect face and get information about the face os is used to delete files

remove_info function will delete the attendance information
list_tostring function will convert the list to a string
save_faces function will take a picture and save it as test1.png
save_done function will take name, roll number and face information and encrypt it with a cryptography key and save it in a students.txt file
check_facematch function will mark the attendance using facial information
register_a_student function will navigate to the student signup page
go_back function will navigate back to the starting page
