Description
Summary:This project is about to design and develop a portable device for better attendance record of students which indirectly reduce absenteeism problem among university students. It will eliminate much problems on manual attendance system by using papers as well as problem of faking someone‟s signature which has become a norm among students. This project will ensure the right and authentic person is present in the lecture, lab, as well as tutorial. It will address absenteeism issue in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP) by designing a portable device of attendance system for authentic person using one input biometric trait which is by using fingerprint verification. To develop this portable device, fingerprint reader is used to add the fingerprints to form students‟ database for attendance marking. This device is capable to add, delete, verify, search, upload and download students‟ fingerprints. Students only need to scan their fingerprint to verify and mark their attendance. This process takes place faster, just within a few seconds. This device is easy to be handled and user-friendly.
