The growing students of the nation use these technologies for various purposes that may have advantages as well as disadvantages

Nowadays the students use the growing technology for the use of some mischief, that might affect their future and hence developments are needed to be made to stop these

Various technologies have been developed in the field of schooling, teaching institutions, schools, colleges, and universities

The current project discusses the solution to stop the students from bunking their classes so that a better education system would be created and help the students to develop

In this project, the use of an embedded system is carried which makes the hardware to completely run based on software

Materials used:

• RFID (radio frequency identification): This is a unique system which is mainly used for distinguishing the different persons
• Real-time clock: This is a special component that is connected to Arduino. This helps the fixing of the time duration
• LCD module: This is a module helps to display the data from Arduino
• GSM module: This is used to send a message to the parents and the school authority
• Arduino Mega: This is considered to be the heart of the system. The main work of this part is to mark the student as present or absent

Working Principle

• The main objective is to mark the attendance of students which is done by the new emerging technology RFID (radio frequency identification)
• The main parts of these are RFID Tag which has a unique id and RFID reader to read the RFID tag
• Special id is issued to each of the students
• The RFID tag has an IC in it and RFID reader develops the magnetic field. It starts matching the frequencies of both when the RFID tag is bought near an RFID reader
• The data which is read by the RFID reader is displayed on the LCD module
• Now the student is marked as present and SMS is sent to the parents and school authority
• A Real-time clock is used, which helps to mark the student as absent if he doesn’t come to school on reporting time
• The data which is collected is now analyzed and processes automatically and gives the report through a visual interface.

Conclusion

It can be seen from the above project that the use of these type of attendance system helps in the reduction of students missing their classes and hence more systems should be developed so that the bunking of classes can be avoided completely.
