Face (facial) recognition is the identifification of humans by the unique characteristics of their Faces.Face recognition technology is the least intrusive and fastest biometric technology. It works with the most obvious individual identififier, the human face. With increasing security needs and with advancement in technology extracting information has become much simpler. This project aims on building an application based on face recognition using different algorithms and comparing the results. The basic purpose being to identify the face and retrieve information stored in the database. It involves two main steps. First to identify the distinguishing factors in image n storing them and Second step to compare it with the existing images and returning the data related to that image.
