Educational institutions across the nation have demonstrated a growing willingness to embrace the transformative power of Artificial Intelligence. Countless examples abound where schools and colleges have integrated AI-powered learning techniques to streamline the acquisition of complex subjects for students.
In addition, the implementation of adaptable learning methods empowered by AI has allowed educators to provide enhanced individualized attention. Interestingly, this technological tide of change is not limited to the realms of academia alone.
Setting an inspiring example, Osmania University in Hyderabad has taken a significant leap forward by leveraging cutting-edge technology to revolutionize the process of attendance tracking. Bid farewell to the tedium of signing attendance registers or relying on traditional biometric systems.
Instead, employees now enjoy the convenience of seamless attendance monitoring simply by entering the premises. This remarkable feat is made possible through the integration of AI and ML technologies with the university’s CCTV cameras, which expertly capture and record the employees’ attendance, login and logout times, and even their comings and goings through the building entrance.
Harnessing the power of facial recognition systems, these innovative cameras employ advanced cognitive AI algorithms to identify and match facial biometrics against the existing database, ensuring accurate attendance records.
Currently implemented as a pilot project in the university’s main administrative building for its employees, the institution has ambitious plans to expand this groundbreaking camera system to other offices, classrooms, and hostels across the campus in the near future.
Contrasting with the traditional approach, where employees manually mark their attendance upon arrival and departure, the CCTV camera-based system continuously monitors movement while simultaneously recording essential log details. An official involved in the project explained, “To accomplish this, we have ingeniously integrated AI and ML capabilities into these two cameras.”
Furthermore, these CCTV cameras serve an additional purpose by capturing the login details of visitors to the administrative building. “The system diligently logs the details of all visitors into the comprehensive database,” the official added.
