AI Door Greeter

The VAR Lab developed an AI Door Greeter, a Python-based application designed to welcome lab members as they arrive.

The system can recognize trained lab members, greet them by name, display their title, and play custom intro music of their choice. It also shows useful local information, including the current weather and major events in the area.

The greeter does not automatically learn or store faces. Instead, it can be intentionally trained only for members who choose to have their face remembered by the system.

This project combines computer vision, Python development, personalization, and real-time information display to create a playful and interactive entry experience for the lab.
