Portable attendance system integrated with learning management system like moodle

This paper gives an idea about a portable attendance system which will be designed and implemented using Raspberry Pi as an embedded Linux board for the management of attendance mainly in educational institutes. With the help of biometric sensor a unique identity is assigned to each individual student. And this ID is stored in database with the help of Raspberry Pi to show the student is present for a class. And these data is sent to a server like Learning Management System (LMS) like Moodle via Wi-Fi which will produce a report of attendance for all students. This paper present a fully automated portable attendance system which can be used to keep attendance log of students in educational institutes. This module is useful to take attendance of students for individual lectures and to produce an attendance report as per the need.
