Hello, I am bugfree Assistant. Feel free to ask me for any question related to this problem

  1. Functional Requirements:

    • User Authentication:
      • The system should accurately identify and authenticate users based on facial recognition.
    • Image Capture and Processing:
      • Capture images from various sources (e.g., webcam, mobile camera) and process them for recognition.
    • Real-time Recognition:
      • Provide real-time face recognition capabilities for immediate user feedback.
    • Multi-Face Detection:
      • Detect and recognize multiple faces in a single image or video frame.
    • User Enrollment:
      • Allow users to enroll their facial data into the system securely.
    • Access Control:
      • Grant or deny access based on recognition results.
    • Logging and Monitoring:
      • Maintain logs of recognition attempts and outcomes for auditing purposes.
    • Integration with Existing Systems:
      • Seamlessly integrate with existing security and user management systems.
  2. Non-Functional Requirements:

    • Accuracy:
      • Achieve a high level of accuracy in face recognition, minimizing false positives and negatives.
    • Performance:
      • Ensure low latency in recognition processes to support real-time applications.
    • Scalability:
      • Support a growing number of users and recognition requests without degradation in performance.
    • Security:
      • Protect user data and ensure secure transmission and storage of facial data.
    • Privacy Compliance:
      • Adhere to privacy regulations and standards, such as GDPR, regarding biometric data.
    • Availability:
      • Ensure high availability and reliability of the system to minimize downtime.
    • Usability:
      • Provide an intuitive and user-friendly interface for both end-users and administrators.
    • Maintainability:
      • Design the system to be easily maintainable and upgradable.
    • Interoperability:
      • Ensure compatibility with various hardware and software platforms.
