Abstract

Proper attendance record-keeping is critical in schools for tracking student participation and performance. Conventional approaches, including manual registers and RFID-based systems, are prone to errors, tampering, and inefficiencies. This research proposes a Fingerprint-Based Smart Attendance Management System Using IoT, which tracks attendance automatically using biometric verification. The system utilizes an ESP32 microcontroller coupled with a fingerprint sensor to scan and authenticate student identities. Attendance records are stored and analyzed in a Python-based system with real-time tracking through a web-based interface. Additionally, when a student has an attendance level of less than 75%, an automatic warning message is sent to their parents. The proposed system improves the accuracy, stops proxy attendance, and enhances overall efficiency in handling attendance. With the integration of IoT and biometric authentication, the system guarantees a secure, scalable, and user-friendly process for tracking attendance
