Gatekeeper: Emotion‑Aware Access Control with Face Verification What if your system could deny access not just based on who you are, but on how you feel? Gatekeeper is a Python‑based security framework that layers real‑time face verification with emotion analysis before granting access. How it works Verify identity against a reference image or an admin pool. Analyze emotions (anger, fear, joy, etc.) and evaluate them against a configurable policy (blocked states, thresholds, weights). Only grant access if both checks pass. Why it matters Critical operations (financial systems, secure rooms, privileged commands) deserve more than binary yes/no. By assessing emotional state, you reduce the risk of coercion, panic, or compromised decision‑making in high‑impact environments.…
