Description
The objective of this research is to design and simulate a portable student attendance system used in educational
institutions as well as to design a user-friendly attendance mechanism, especially for the lecturer, which
incorporates security criteria for the stored data. When the system is powered on, it will first show the SD card on
the system by displaying "SD card is OK", then the title of the project will be displayed also. The time, date, and
year are also displayed. Each of the students is assigned a certain identification number starting from 01 to 09... If a
student with 01 is called and you see him, you will press 01 from your system or android serial monitor with the
help of the Bluetooth device used in the system of your phone to indicate the student is present and at the same time
you will press send from your system. The message will be sent to the registered phone number with the help of the
GSM module. Also, the students present in the class will also be saved on the SD card for future use.
