Raspberry Pi
AI-powered smart reception and access control
A Raspberry Pi reception kiosk that recognises employees and visitors by face in real time, registers visitors, logs every entry and exit, and opens the door when access is granted.

An AI-powered smart reception and access control system running on a Raspberry Pi. Real-time facial recognition identifies employees and visitors, automates visitor registration and controls physical access at the entrance.
The solution combines the embedded kiosk with a facial recognition engine, a visitor database, a desktop administration panel and a mobile management interface. When a person is detected, the system identifies them, records the entry or exit, and can trigger the door mechanism automatically based on the result.
