Abstract:
In the traditional attendance system of Bangladesh, the teachers either call the name or identity number of the students to which the students respond or pass the attendance sheet to the students to sign. With the increase of the number of students in the last two decades, the difficulties in attendance management system has increased remarkably. Again, in case of passing attendance sheet to the students, some students sign multiple times and proxy attendance is taken. These two systems are very time consuming. To overcome these inconveniencies, this paper represents a smart attendance system prototype. In this paper radio frequency identification, biometric fingerprint sensor and password based technologies are integrated to develop a cost effective, reliable attendance management system. A desktop application is developed in C# environment to monitor the attendance system.
