Abstract—In Thailand University, checking student attendance is one of the important issues for universities, because many universities evaluate students’ attendance and while giving the final grade, professors consider their total number of appearances on classes during the whole semester. This brings to the idea of having some tool to control students’ attendance. Some universities prefer to use paper sheet for controlling attendance, whereas some universities prefer to use paper sheet for checking students ' attendance and after this, fill out these information into a system manually, like Kasetsart University Si Racha Campus does. However, this is not an efficient way since there will be spent much of time for calling students names and putting marks like "presence" or "absence" if the class is a lecture class, and in this class at least 5 groups are presented. Moreover, some students may call his/her friend as "presence" even though this student is currently absent. After thinking all these issues, researcher of the following research paper decided to create a system that makes easier to check students’ attendance automatically, and this system is implemented in Kasetsart University Si Racha, Thailand. Actually, this is the first time when such kind of system is being used in educational
