IoT Based Smart Attendance System (SAS) Using RFID

Abstract

This work introduces a new paradigm of monitoring student attendance using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based on the Internet of Thing (IoT). Educational institutes are concerned about student irregular attendance. Truancy can affect a student's overall academic performance. The traditional method of taking attendance by calling names or signing on paper is very time consuming and inefficient. RFID based attendance system using IoT system is one of the solutions to handle the problem. The proposed work comprises of two most popular trend in technology research; IoT and RFID.
