ATTENDX

01 — The Problem

"Teachers were spending 15 minutes of every lecture just calling out names. Why not just look at the class and know who is there?"

02 — Overview

ATTENDX is an AI-powered facial recognition attendance system that eliminates manual roll-call through live face detection. It features a robust admin dashboard with automated low-attendance flags, real-time analytics, and secure data storage. The frontend is built with React and deployed on Vercel, integrating seamlessly with a Python/Flask backend and OpenCV for high-accuracy recognition.

03 — Drawbacks & Future Scope

It currently struggles in dim lighting, proving that even AI can't see in the dark. Next up: infrared vision and liveness detection to catch proxy-attendance artists red-handed.
