IoT BIOMETRIC ATTENDANCE SYSTEM NEXUS WITH AUTOMATED DATA STREAMLINING AND SOFTWARE ORCHESTRATION

Abstract

Biometric technology involves the recognition and authentication of individuals by examining unique characteristics of the human body. In modern times, attendance is taken traditionally in educational institutions using paper and pen, it increases the workload for teachers and also takes time. The purpose of this design is to make a biometric system for students. As the world becomes modern and digitalized, so we need to make a portable system for attendance with an embedded software application. By this proposal, authorized access will be given to the teacher to activate the biometric for each period. After student attendance is recognized by a fingerprint sensor the required messages will be sent to their parents for every period and the data will be stored in the application. In addition, the proposed system could increase productivity and reduce the manual process, truancy, and lateness in educational institutions.
