Pune: Students of Pune Institute of Computer Technology (PICT) have developed a technology to monitor how attentive pupils are in a class.
The technology would alert teachers about inattentive students in class in real-time, using facial recognition techniques. The students also won a prize at the Singapore-India hackathon.
Two students from PICT — Shoaib Ahmed and Shubham Korde — were given a problem statement on student attentiveness detection at the hackathon event.
“We built the software to operate the camera as well a the camera as well a the complete working model for this particular problem,” they said
“Using facial recognition techniques, computer vision as well as machine learning techniques, the cameras, strategically placed around the classroom, will be able to identify the attentiveness level of each individual student as well as overall attentiveness level of the classroom,” they said.
The students said that overall statistics could be displayed to the teacher in real-time on his/her device using the teacher’s dashboard.
