YRHacks 2023 project
Eyedentify is a web app for completing attendances of large classrooms with facial recognition.
From the Eyedentify app, the user is able to create an attendance sheet with the faces of students. When it is time to do attendance, the user submits a picture containing some of the students and the app automatically marks off who is present.
Eyedentify is split into a server and client. The server was written in Python with Flask and the facial_recognition library. The client was written in React with TailwindCSS.
We found communicating between the server and client to be tedious. There is a lot of design work on top of actual coding to go through, and web technologies sometimes made things difficult.
