A Bluetooth low energy based beacon system for smart short range surveillance

The aim of this paper is to propose a fault-tolerant smart system which can render, track and monitor the process of attendance of students. A smart attendance system is refined in a systematic manner where the students enter the lecture hall with an android device which possesses a beacon compatible mobile app. The main purpose of this system is to minimize the power consumption of Bluetooth using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, which prevents fraud and favors in an attendance system by using a Bluetooth smart beacon.
