MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541111357 A) filed by Priscilla Sophia P; Maheshwaran T; Mourish R; Blessvin Shibu P; and Libinpriyadarsan R, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, on Nov. 14, 2025, for 'smart attendance system using face recognition.'

Inventor(s) include Priscilla Sophia P; Maheshwaran T; Mourish R; Blessvin Shibu P; and Libinpriyadarsan R.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention titled "Smart Attendance System Using Face Recognition" relates to an automated attendance management solution that utilizes facial recognition technology to identify individuals and record their attendance without manual intervention. The system comprises a camera module for capturing live images or video of individuals, a face detection unit for identifying facial regions, and a face recognition module that compares the detected face with pre-stored data in a database. When a match is found, the system automatically marks attendance along with the date and time stamp in a centralized database. This invention eliminates traditional manual attendance methods such as roll calling or biometric punching, thereby saving time and reducing human errors. It also minimizes the possibility of proxy attendance by using unique facial features for authentication. The system can be implemented in educational institutions, workplaces, and secured facilities, and can generate real-time attendance reports accessible through an administrative interface. The proposed system provides an efficient, reliable, and contactless approach to attendance monitoring using artificial intelligence and computer vision technologies."
