Abstract | This paper presents the design of the wireless communication architecture, the implementation of IoT technology in educational institutions and the system hardware based on customised micro-controller and wireless communication processors. The study involves the security threats involved in current practices and proposing a solution using IoT. The conventional method of recording attendance using RFID cards has proven to be insecure and prone to proxies. This paper provides a smart attendance system using IoT based sensors, and Raspberry Pi to collect data. The IoT devices are embedded into the existing education environment for data to be collected, transmitted through WiFi using MQTT protocol and store data in local server. The collected data is then accessible to the management with real time insights and attendance pattern. |
