Educational institutes these days are worried mostly on the consistency of student's performance. One explanation for this decrease in scholar overall performance is the insufficiency in attendance. There are numerous approaches to mark a student's attendance, and the most common way is by calling the student's name or roll number or the signature of the students. It takes lot of time and sometimes becomes difficult. To overcome this, an automated and computer-based student attendance checking system is required that helps the institutes in holding the facts about student's attendance. We have used an intelligent attendance system primarily based on face recognition in this project. We have proposed and enforced a "Real time smart attendance monitoring model based on face recognition" within which huge packages are integrated. The prevailing implementation consists of facial identification that is time saving and eradicates the possibilities of proxy attendance.
