This work presents the design of an automated vigilance system using facial recognition. The system runs a real time comparison of data gathered through high definition cameras and stored information off authorized personnel for an specific area. The system generates different types of alerts depending on the event occurring at the time of comparison. The system was developed using Matlab simulations using Simulink. The simulations shows how the facial recognition works when detecting a non authorized person and the alerts triggered when this type of event occurs.

The government of Ecuador through its National Plan for Technologies and Telecommunications (Plan Nacional de Telecomunicaciones y Tecnologías), has as a goal to give universal access to Technologies of Information and Communication (TICs) to its entire citizens. One of its projects is to assure connectivity and infrastructure in schools. This paper proposes a low-cost open source solution to improve the access to information technology and communication through computers to children of schools in low income areas. The proposed alternative was set out to using the Raspberry Pi 3 s a substitute of standard computer. Its performance and capabilities were put to test comparing them to standard PC main functions. the pilot experiment was implemented at the "Ciudad de Ariel" elementary school, located on Durán, Ecuador.
