Access control system by face recognition based on S3C2440

Abstract

Face recognition technology has become more and more important in the field of biometric identification because of its advantages. A face recognition system combining hardware and software based on S3C2440 is presented in this paper. We adopt S3C2440 embedded development board as the hardware platform. This paper creates an embedded Linux software platform and our system is divided into four sections by their function: graphical user interface, image capture, face detection and face recognition. The whole system is tested as an access control system in practical situation. Experimental results show that our system has a good performance in both accuracy and efficiency of face recognition in access control. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014.
