EXISTING SYSTEM

The existing system all the information is to be maintained in

a hard file or Website. While searching any information it is difficult to
access and time consuming. Some computer based software's are also
used nowadays but they are not user-friendly and don’t provide
portability. Faculty takes time to maintain these records. Some
organizations use’s various software for maintaining faculty records but
they are not very efficient. The main drawback of existing system is that
it does not provide portability and is time consuming.

As already mentioned,
there are several
types of attendance
management systems,
and they are classified
into following
categories and their
combination:
• student
identification card and
card reader system,
• near field
communication (NFC)
based system,
• barcode and similar
coding based system,
• biometrics system,
and
• one time password
system

As already mentioned, there are several types of attendance

and their combination:
 Faculty Identification Card and Card Reader System,
 Near Field Communication (NFC) based system.
 Barcode and similar code system,
 Biometric System, and
 One time password.
Regarding these system, there are two major problems; one is a
queue problem and another is a cost problem. At the beginning or at the
end of the college time, you can see the faculty, who want to record their
attendances, make long queue in front of the card reader, if the number
of attendances are too much. That is the queue problem. In addition, we
have to pay much expense for replacing the whole of all identification
cards if the cards does not have any function of keeping information.
These system requires special devices such as RFID reader, Beacon
transmitter, and so on. It results in the cost problem similar to replacing
the identification cards. The same problem comes biometric-based
system.

DISADVANTAGE
  Lack of Graphical User Interface Environment.
 Difficulties in report generation.
 Manual control.
 Lot of paperwork.
 Consumes more time.
 Sometimes it leads to error on conversion.
 Not user-friendly.

PROPOSED SYSTEM
Since there are so many drawbacks in the existing system we go
for a mobile based android application. In the proposed system, a smart
phone based android application using android can be used to make the
process more easier, secure and less error prone. Thus reduction of
manual and more efficient information system will be achieved through
this proposed system. The main advantage of proposed system is that it
provides portability and also provides access from anywhere and at any
time. Here, both the faculty and the management can make use of this
application by installing it in their mobile phone where faculty is given
the authority only to view their record whereas the management has the
authority to modify and make changes in the record. The proposed
system is a fully automated one using wireless android. The proposed
android application introduces portability as it is used on a mobile.\
The following system eliminates the tedious task of manually
maintaining the attendance records by automating it. The system allows
easy attendance management using the Fingerprints, which is one of the
most acceptable techniques. System also consists of database which
includes images of all the faculty’s and their personal details. After the
image is uploaded to the system, fingerprint of faculty’s are detected
from the image. These fingerprint images are then compared with the
images of faulty stored in the database using fingerprint algorithm and
record of attendance is kept. This is how record of attendance is kept in
our system.
ADVANTAGE
 Time saving as attendance can be taken just by checking the list of
faculty.
 No needs to maintain several separate records and manual
calculations.
 Attendance information is available 24x7.
 More secured than traditional attendance system.
 Significantly reduces paper wastage.
 It is trouble-free to use.
 It is a relatively fast approach to enter attendance.
 Is highly reliable, approximately result from user.
