Abstract: In schools and colleges, lot of time is wasted for manual attendance procedures, in such cases our system provides an automated attendance marking system. Every student will be provided with a RFID tag/card with his/her details fed in it and everyone’s tag is unique to others. This data is stored in the tag by modulating and demodulating transmitted radio frequency signals with the help of a built in integrated circuit. As soon as a student places his/her card in front of the RFID reader, the data in it is read and attendance for that student will be registered. This is done with the help of a raspberry pi interfaced with the reader. We can view the attendance status for every student obtained from the excel sheet that is generated. Thus lot of time is saved in providing attendance.
