Automated Attendance Monitoring System Using IoT

Abstract

Most of the process is automated to reduce human intervention and manual mistakes in this busy world. It will be easy if we can automate some complex, sensitive activities of day to day life. This paper discusses a smart attendance system that automatically monitors and manages the attendance of students in an educational institution. Further, this system makes automated analysis and prepares a detailed report weekly, monthly and annually. The whole system is developed with an Arduino microcontroller and RFID readers. Also, GSM and Wi-Fi communication modules are used to make convenient communication depend on the availability of the network. A microchip (microSD) is placed to store data in case of communication failure and those stored data will be uploaded bulk when the communication channel is restored. This system will reduce a lot of manual work of educators and education administrators of an education institution
