Attendance System using RFID Technology

Abstract

There has been tremendous growth in recent years in the sector of IOE and its applications. One such application is RFID. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification. There are many use cases being practiced in day to day lives of RFID such as in transportation, shopping malls, agriculture, factories, health-care and many more. Another application is a smart attendance system. The current traditional attendance system has many limitations which can be overcome with the help of RFID based attendance systems. This system consists of RFID scanners also called tags and RFID readers to offer more efficient and accurate information gathering of the students. This paper focuses on developing an RFID based Attendance System using microcontroller, some sensors, RFID tags, readers and other basic electrical components. RFID based attendance system provides the most modern approach to track user check-in and checkout status.
