Attendance Management System Using Geofencing Technology

In institutions it is considered an important to teachers to be actively involved in the attendance process to facilitate knowledge transfer. One common approach is for teachers to manually sign an attendance sheet. However, a such sheets can easily be Lost. Moreover, relying on paper-based systems can lead to wasted time and hinder learning productivity in the classroom. While there are paperless attendance systems available, like Biometric or Android based solutions they often require hardware such as computers either RFID readers which can result in increased costs for both equipment and maintenance. Taking these factors into account our aim is to the tackle this issue by developing an attendance system that minimizes the need, for hardware and software requirements. We do this by improving the mobility of presenting attendance systems and leveraging both GPS and Geo Fence methods.
