Source code of facial recognition software for rice ATM

3. Build software

After successful build, the software interface is as shown below

When operating the program will have the following processing flow:

• Take a picture from the webcam and save the jpg image to folder temp
• Extract the face feature (landmark) and save it as a *.bin file of the same name with images
• Feature comparison with images in folder images
• If no one is in the library, assign a new code
• If it already exists, calculate the number of days and update the time
• Move the image file & landmark .bin file into the folder corresponding to that person’s code

If your build fails, you can go to folder bin/Rice_ATM-x64/ run the program Rice_ATM.exe we built it. p>

The program uses database SQLite to store the photographer’s information.

4. Relay opening and closing circuit

The software automatically finds the COM ports to see which port the Arduino is connecting to. If detected, Arduino board will automatically connect to send signal.

You need to load the Arduino code to receive the signal from the computer to send it down, I convention that when there is an O (OK) character, the signal will be output to pin A0. When the A0 pin outputs a signal, it will generate a voltage of 5V to trigger the solid relay SSR-40-DA to generate rice.

Relay SSR-40-DA  is a type of relay for AC power (220V residential). If you use 12V/24V DC power, you can use relays SSR-40-DD

Depending on the type of motor, it can be replaced with other suitable relays
 

• Install the Arduino Nano CH340 driver
• Load the code for the Arduino Nano in the folder Rice_ATM/Arduino/trigger_relay
• Connect the wires similar to the picture above
• The 2 pins above are connected in series in a 220V circuit similar to a switch

You should use the Arduino Nano pin output base as shown below for stability when using, not afraid of loose wires
