# Face Recognition Attendance System Multiple Cameras

This project is a web application built with Flask that utilizes face recognition technology for managing attendance. It allows multiple cameras to stream video over HTTP, enabling real-time attendance tracking. The application supports three user roles: Students, Teachers, and Admins, each with specific functionalities.

## 🚀 Features

- **Face Recognition**: Automatically recognizes students' faces for attendance logging using the `face_recognition` Python library. 📸
- **Multiple Camera Support**: Stream from multiple cameras over HTTP, allowing flexibility in attendance monitoring. 🎥
- **Role-Based Access**:
- **Students**: View their own attendance records. 📅
- **Teachers**: Access attendance data for their classes. 📊
- **Admins**: Add or remove face data and manage student records. ⚙️
- **MySQL Database**: Efficiently stores and manages user data and attendance records. 🗄️

## 🛠️ Technologies Used

- **Flask**: The web framework for building the application. ⚗️
- **face_recognition**: For facial recognition capabilities. 👤
- **OpenCV**: For video capturing and processing. 🖥️
- **MySQL**: For database management. 🐬
- **HTML/CSS/JavaScript**: For front-end development. 🌐
