Sulakshna Sarkar, Pradnyali Gaikwad, Sneha Agrawal, Seema Arote
Abstract— this paper describes a Class attendance system. It uses Face Recognition and Rfid as the two parameters for marking the Attendance of students. The attendance of the students is also updated to the Head of department. Classroom and Head of department is connected through a Zigbee network. If the student is present an SMS is sent to the parent. Authentication is a significant issue in system control in computer based communication. Human face recognition is an important branch of biometric verification and has been widely used in many applications, such as video monitor system, humancomputer interaction, and door control system and network security. This paper describes a method for Student’s Attendance System which will integrate with the face recognition technology using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) algorithm. ZigBee is a specification for a suite of high level communication protocols using small, low-power digital radios based on an IEEE 802 standard for personal area networks. Zigbee has been proposed as the wireless network in this system because it is low cost and easy. Index Terms—Face Recognition, Attendance, PCA, Zigbee, Rfid.
This method could easily allow for impersonation and the attendance sheet could be stolen or lost. Taking of attendance is time consuming and it is difficult to ascertain the number of students that have made the minimum percentage and thus eligible for exam. Thus, there is a need for a system that would eliminate all of these trouble spots. An automatic attendance
