🙎‍♂️Face Recognition System with Real-Time Database

📋 Overview

This project is a Face Recognition System that generates face encodings for stored data and uses these encodings to recognize new faces. When a new face is recognized, the data is added to a real-time database using Firebase.

✨ Features

• 🔢 Face Encoding Generation: Generates unique encodings for faces stored in the database.
• 🕵️ Real-Time Face Recognition: Recognizes new faces using the generated encodings.
• 🔄 Real-Time Database Integration: Adds recognized face data to Firebase in real-time.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• Python
• OpenCV
• dlib
• Firebase

🚀 Installation
