The face recognition attendance method is being used in this project because of its reliability that is accurate in terms of determining student faces.

The target user of MySIMS is the educational organization that manages their institution to provide smooth transition of administration. Furthermore, it will also benefit the teacher as the proposed system is meant to reduce the workload of educational staff because the attendance taking can be automated with the use of high-resolution face recognition camera.
