About the project
The project integrates a distance sensor and a camera to monitor the entrance of a door. When the distance sensor detects movement within a specified range, the camera captures an image. The captured image is then processed using a face detection algorithm to identify and highlight faces. The images, along with the timestamps and the number of detected faces, are saved both as files and in a SQLite database for record-keeping.

Build a robot
- Not all door frames are the same, build a holder that will work on yours.
- Find a place where you camera will reach and can be placed to watch doors without movement.
Building instructions:
Get the robot ready
Raspberry Python Code:
Ideas for improvement
- Make the robot speed up if the line is straight and slow down before the turn.
- Try to make the robot make as sharp turn as you can.
Evaluate your performance
- Think about how you approached the problem and about how else could it be solved.
- Evaluate yourself on how you adapted when something didn't work as you hoped it would.
