Attendify: Smart Attendance System
Sahaya Gladwin JS
Attendance monitoring is an essential process in educational institutions, but traditional attendance methods such as manual roll calls, registers, RFID, and biometric systems are time-consuming and prone to errors. This paper proposes Attendify, a contactless attendance monitoring system that uses face recognition technology to automate the attendance process. The system captures student faces using a camera and identifies them through deep learning-based facial recognition models. Once a student is recognized, attendance is automatically recorded with a timestamp and stored in a centralized database. The system also provides attendance reports and notifications to staff and parents to ensure transparency. By eliminating manual effort and proxy attendance, the system improves accuracy, efficiency, and classroom management.
