AttendX - Automated Attendance System

Overview

AttendX is a web application designed for schools and universities to streamline the attendance process. The application utilizes machine learning to automate attendance marking through facial recognition. Teachers can use a tablet with a camera to capture students' faces, and the application compares them to stored images in the database. If a match is found, the student is marked as present, and the attendance record is updated.

Features

1. Facial Recognition: The application uses facial recognition technology to accurately identify and mark the attendance of students.
2. Web-Based: Built on Vue.js, AttendX is a web application that provides easy access and flexibility for teachers to use on tablets.
3. Machine Learning Integration: Leveraging machine learning algorithms, AttendX continuously improves its facial recognition capabilities over time.
