Abstract

In an event of large gatherings especially in institutions, the need for taking attendance is of high importance. The conventional method of marking students’ attendance involves the students writing and signing their names on a sheet of paper. This method is time-consuming; the register may get lost and the possibility of students signing for their friends who are absent is very high. The need to replace this manual and conventional method with a biometric attendance system is highly significant. This paper presents a biometrics and temperature scanning system that uses a fingerprint scanner, microcontroller, temperature sensor, and display to enroll, authenticate and store the fingerprint records of individuals, display room and students’ body temperatures and save the attendance record in the memory of the device for future reference. When the system was deployed for use, it was able to record the attendance of 20 students in less than three minutes. This translates to a significant reduction in the amount of time spent using the conventional pen and paper method.
