Let’s walk through building a facial recognition-based attendance system to demonstrate how Codersarts supports an end-to-end project. This example is designed to resonate with students (for coursework), developers (for POCs), and businesses (for operational use).
Step 1: Setting Up AWS Rekognition
Prerequisites
AWS account with access to Rekognition, S3, Lambda, API Gateway, and DynamoDB.
Basic knowledge of Python (for backend) and JavaScript (for frontend).
Codersarts Support
Students: We guide you through AWS account setup, free-tier usage, and IAM configuration.
Developers: We optimize your AWS environment for scalability and cost-efficiency.
Businesses: We ensure compliance with security standards and enterprise-grade access controls.
Configuration
Create an S3 Bucket:
Name: attendance-images.
Enable versioning and set permissions for Rekognition access.
Set Up IAM Roles:
Create a Lambda role with policies: AmazonRekognitionFullAccess, AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess, AmazonDynamoDBFullAccess.
Enable Rekognition:
Operate in a supported region (e.g., us-east-1).
Example: S3 Bucket Policy
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "rekognition.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "s3:GetObject",
"Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::attendance-images/*"
}
]
}
Step 2: Designing the Application Architecture
The attendance system includes:
Frontend: React app for image uploads.
Backend: Lambda functions for Rekognition API calls.
Storage: S3 for images, DynamoDB for attendance records.
API: API Gateway for frontend-backend communication.
Codersarts Support
Students: We provide architecture diagrams and explanations for coursework documentation.
Developers: We design scalable architectures for POCs and MVPs.
Businesses: We integrate with existing systems and ensure high availability.

Step 3: Developing the Application
Backend (AWS Lambda)
Below is a sample Lambda function to process images and interact with Rekognition.
import boto3
import json
import urllib.parse
s3_client = boto3.client('s3')
rekognition_client = boto3.client('rekognition')
dynamodb = boto3.resource('dynamodb')
def lambda_handler(event, context):
bucket = event['Records'][0]['s3']['bucket']['name']
key = urllib.parse.unquote_plus(event['Records'][0]['s3']['object']['key'])
response = rekognition_client.compare_faces(
SourceImage={'S3Object': {'Bucket': bucket, 'Name': key}},
TargetImage={'S3Object': {'Bucket': bucket, 'Name': 'reference/employee1.jpg'}},
SimilarityThreshold=90
)
if response['FaceMatches']:
employee_id = "EMP001"
table = dynamodb.Table('AttendanceRecords')
table.put_item(
Item={
'EmployeeID': employee_id,
'Timestamp': str(context.get_remaining_time_in_millis()),
'ImageKey': key
}
)
return {
'statusCode': 200,
'body': json.dumps({'message': 'Attendance recorded', 'employee_id': employee_id})
}
else:
return {
'statusCode': 400,
'body': json.dumps({'message': 'No match found'})
}
