Abstract: The problem of Face detection and recognition is becoming a challenge due to the wide variety of faces and the complexity of the noises and background of image. In this paper we have used C-sharp and Haar algorithm to detect the face. First in this paper the image is taken with a web-camera, storing it in the database and then once again when the person comes in the frame the name of the person is displayed. This paper is done in C-sharp which was a bit difficult for us to do and we have combined both the face detection and the recognition. The proposed method has good output and a good recognition rate. The limitation of the paper is that it does not display the name of the person above the face. In the future work will be carried on the above said topic. While developing the code some sample codes in python but those were basic programs. So this paper aims to find a solution for it and developed in C-sharp. In finding the XML file of haarcascade frontal face detection we found some problems and had to do a bit of research in finding it. The code for face detection and face recognition were found in different places and in this paper the codes for the both has been combined and found some difficulty. To overcome the basic programs we have written the code in C-sharp and the difficulty which we faced in combining the two codes have been solved. The solution has been successfully implemented and the code is fully running and the output has been successfully achieved.
