Abstract: The Smart Door Lock with Face Recognition and IoT Access is an intelligent security and access control system designed to enhance residential, commercial, and institutional safety through biometric authentication and remote connectivity technologies. The invention integrates facial recognition algorithms, digital imaging devices, microcontroller-based processing units, electronic locking mechanisms, and Internet of Things (IoT) communication modules into a compact smart locking platform. The system enables secure, keyless, and automated access management while improving user convenience and monitoring capabilities. The invention utilizes a camera module to capture facial images of individuals approaching the door. The captured images are processed using embedded facial recognition software capable of identifying authorized users by comparing facial features with stored biometric data. Upon successful authentication, the electronic locking mechanism automatically unlocks the door. Unauthorized access attempts trigger alerts, image recording, and security notifications transmitted to connected mobile devices or cloud-based platforms. The system further includes remote locking and unlocking functionality, visitor access management, password backup authentication, and real-time monitoring through wireless communication technologies such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Additional safety features include tamper detection, automatic locking, emergency access control, and battery backup operation during power interruptions. The proposed invention is suitable for smart homes, offices, laboratories, educational institutions, hotels, and restricted-access facilities requiring advanced security solutions. By combining biometric identification, intelligent access control, and IoT connectivity within a single system, the Smart Door Lock with Face Recognition and IoT Access provides a secure, reliable, and user-friendly modem security management solution.
