This projects aims to design a fingerprint biometric system for the usage of time and attendance recording at a university level or a small organization and also create a prototype of the designed fingerprint biometric system. This system aims to solve the problem of the current method of taking attendance in university classes which by attendance sheet or paper. This method has been proven to be ineffective since it can be easily manipulated by student and the storage of data is troublesome. This project aims to solve these issues. The system is based on Arduino board which will communicate with the SM630 Fingerprint Reader Integrated module to obtain the data of the user and also record the time by using a SD card reader to store the data. Based on the all the testing done all the hardware has be integrated into one complete system. The fingerprint module testing show that the accuracy of the SM630 Fingerprint Reader Integrated is very high in comparing fingerprints for one another and the prototype is manage to record all the data of the attendance of the sample. The prototype of the system have meet with the basic requirement of the project and can be used in a practical situation.
