Automation of attendance system using RFID, biometrics, GSM Modem with .Net framework

The purpose of this paper is to develop a wireless system to detect and maintain the attendance of a student and locate a student. For, this the students ID (identification) card is tagged with an Radio-frequency identification (RFID) passive tag which is matched against the database and only finalized once his fingerprint is verified using the biometric fingerprint scanner. The guardian is intimated by a sms (short message service) sent using the GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) Modem of the same that is the student has reached the university or not on a daily basis, in the present day every guardian is worried whether his child has reached safely or not. In every classroom, laboratory, libraries, staffrooms etc. a RFID transponder is installed through which we will be detecting the location of the student and staff. There will be a website through which the student, teacher and the guardians can view the status of attendance and location of a student at present in the campus. A person needs to be located can be done by two means that is via the website or by sending the roll number of the student as an sms to the GSM modem which will reply by taking the last location stored of the student in the database.
