As a sign arrival system of work, fingerprint attendance system aims to automate the attendance procedure of an educational institution using fingerprint technology. A hand-held device is designed to mark the attendance without the intervention of teacher. After students made to place their fingers over the sensor before the class, the corresponding names are shown in green. Student attendance would be recorded to the SD card storage module. The absence name of student would not only be updated to computer using a micro usb-cable, but also be sent to the teacher in charge or sent to the corresponding parents or both in mobile phone by SMS Module if the faculty pressed the button. Therefore, the intelligent fingerprint attendance instrument in the classroom greatly improves the efficiency of the teacher's class registration.

Design of Intelligent Classroom Fingerprint Attendance System Based on MCU

From the past two decades, various spheres of activity are in the aspect of 'Face recognition' as an essential tool. The complete series of actions of face recognition is composed of 3 stages: Face Detection, Feature Extraction and Recognition. In this paper, we make an effort to put forth a new application of face recognition and detection in education. The proposed system scans the classroom and detects the face of the students in class and matches the scanned face with the templates that is available in the database and updates the attendance of the respective students.
