Attendance System Using RFID, IOT and Machine Learning: A Two-Factor Verification Approach

The time and attendance systems help to monitor the employers and students working and attending time. Educational systems are struggling with the traditional system. It affects the pedagogical activities considerably. The traditional system is encountering many problems, and there is a need for a robust technological solution. This study focuses on building a two-factor prototype with RFID, IoT, and machine learning techniques. A microcontroller, GSM module, RFID tag, an RFID reader are used for first step verification. A camera with Multitask Cascaded Convolutional Network (MTCNN) model is used for a second verification. When both are okay, students will get the attendance. If it fails, parents will get a notification about the student’s attendance. When the prototype is developed as a complete system, the educational system will be getting higher advantages.
