Problem

I am building facial recognition software for a certain purpose, however, as a spin-off i would like to use that same software / concept, to automatically recognize me when i sit in front of the PC, and log me in. recognition is handled.. however, i need to incorporate this into windows, the same way fingerprint logins work. where can i go to get some more info on the doing this?
