AN IMPLEMENTATION OF FINGERPRINT AND AADHAR BASED STUDENT ATTENDANCE SYSTEM

Abstract: Whole world and managements of Educational Institutions’ are worried about consistency of student attendance, which affects in their complete academic performance and finally affects the development of education in students’. Proper attendance recording and management has become important in today’s world as attendance and achievement go hand in hand. Attendance is one of the work ethics valued by employers. Most of the government organizations and educational institutions in developing countries still use paper-based attendance method for maintaining the attendance records. There is a need to replace these traditional methods of attendance recording with biometric attendance system. Besides being secure, Fingerprint based attendance system will also be environment friendly. Fingerprint matching is widely used in forensics for a long time. It can also be used in applications such as identity management and access control. This review incorporates the problems of attendance systems presently in use, working of a typical fingerprint-based attendance system, study of different systems, their advantages, disadvantages and comparison based upon important parameters. Presently the conventional methods for taking attendance is calling name their name/roll no or by signing on a paper, which practically time consuming and less secure also since there are many chance of proxy attendance. Hence, for preserving attendance there is a necessity of a computer-based student attendance supervision system which will assist the faculty. The paper reviews several computerized attendance supervision systems which is being developed by using different techniques.
