Ultimate Security System

Abstract

the system proposed in this paper is a security system that uses both biometrics and non biometrics to overcome the downsides of each other. This system can be broken into three parts password protection, Face recognition and Fingerprint recognition. In Password protection user has to input set of characters as username and password which is later compared with previously stored data for user authentication. In Face recognition ‘Face’ and ‘Eye’ haar cascade are used for identification of human facial features which are extracted from set of grayscale images acquired from the camera then stored for comparison with the Images acquired while user authentication. Fingerprint recognition consists of three main parts, image acquisition, processing and identification and recognition. A fingerprint image is acquired and fed into the image processing program. In image processing acquired image is enhanced by performing image cropping, grayscale enhancement, binarization, ridge filtration. After the image has been processed, it is fed into the Harris corner detection algorithm for feature extraction and then the data obtained is stored in the database. While user authentication acquired image again goes through the image processing and then it is compared with the previously stored data for recognition. User needs to pass all these security checkups to gain access to the confidential data.
