RFID Based Smart Attendance Management System Using Microcontroller

Abstract

RFID is an acronym for “radio-frequency identification” and refers to a technology whereby digital data encoded in RFID tags or smart labels (defined below) are captured by a reader via radio waves. RFID is similar to barcoding in that data from a tag or label are captured by a device that stores the data in a database. RFID, however, has several advantages over systems that use barcode asset tracking software. The most notable is that RFID tag data can be read outside the line-of-sight, whereas barcodes must be aligned with an optical scanner. Eliminate of duplicate data entry and errors when then time of attendance entries. Also improve visibility student tracking and managing student and absenteeism across multiple campuses.
