Abstract

Students attendance during lecture is really important to all educational institutions. The process of taking the attendance manually in lecture room leads to time wasted. Nowadays, instead of calling names of students one by one, most educational institutions used attendance sheet for students to put their signatures on it and indicate their presence during lecture period. However, this method is very time consuming and gives high probability for students to sign the attendance on behalf of their absence friends, which can be called as cheating. The main objective of this project is to develop radio frequency identification (RFID) technology device with integration of real-time computing system in helping, monitoring and managing attendance as well as eliminating time-wasted during manual collection of attendance and reducing the used of paper. Automatic Class Attendance is functioned once the student places the card in front of the RFID reader. Then, it would read the data stored in the card and programmable integrated circuit (PIC) helps in transferring the data to smart phone through Bluetooth communication. Smart phone will display the information card identification (ID) like name, matriculation number and telephone number of the student and saved them in real-time system using Microsoft Excel. The system is controlled by the lecturers through smart phone. Lastly, the attendance reports can be generated and send to email.
