ABSTRACT:
The Attendance Management System offers a robust and secure solution for managing attendance in educational institutions. It combines three advance technologies location-based authentication, OTP verification, and facial recognition to ensure accurate, tamper-proof attendance records. The process begins with staff generating a one-time password (OTP) at a specific, pre-defined location. This location-based OTP confirms the user's physical presence, acting as the first level of authentication. To further strengthen security, the system incorporates facial recognition. Upon entering the OTP, the user’s facial image is captured and matched with pre-stored data to verify their identity.This dual-layer verification effectively prevents proxy attendance or fraudulent entries, ensuring that only authorized individuals can mark attendance.The integration of location biometric validation greatly improves the reliability of attendance records. It minimizes manual errors, eliminates the risk of manipulation, and streamlines entire attendance tracking process.With increased transparency and accountability, institutions can better manage staff and student participation. This system not only enhances operational efficiency but also builds trust in the fairness and accuracy of attendance data, making it an invaluable tool for modern educational organizational environments.
