I'm working on a similar project to watch my laundry, and send an alert
when the washer or dryer has stopped.  That's not a very hard problem,
and will be an amusing little project.  The followup will be a camera
that lets me know when the chickens have laid eggs.

OpenCV works fairly well for face detection, but face recognition is
still very dicey last time I checked.  A solution that may better match
the current state of technology is hand-sign recognition.  If you could
assign different hand signs to different people, then that could be your
key, at least until face recognition becomes more robust.
