ABSTRACT
This project is on the design and development of portable

and reliable fingerprint based student attendance monitoring
system that can be used to monitor attendance of the
student.
INTRODUCTION
Attendance management of students in institution can be rigorous using the conventional method of
paper sheets and old file system method. Every academic institution poses some standards concerning how
attendance is to be confirmed for student in classes, laboratory sessions and examination halls.
There are so many bottlenecks with the conventional method, one of such problem is the difficulty for the
management to compute the percentage of student attendance in classes and frequently modify their
information. Also in institution, tracking and monitoring student time of attendance could be tedious task,
time consuming and as well prone to errors.
As an alternative to traditional manual clocking process by students in classes or during examination,
biometrics characteristics can be used for authenticating students. This research will focus on developing
Fingerprint based Biometric Student Attendance Monitoring System.
IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY
 Eliminating the use of paper in manual signing processes and all the risk associated with it.
 The System will drastically reduce time needed to verify attendance data.
 The system provide high level of security whereby making it impossible for imposters and
impersonators in making their ways to examination halls.
 The System will keep historical data for accessing the grades of students.
 It also prevents mistake of manual signing in which most of the Manual/Humanerrors are
reduced.
LITERATURE REVIEW
What is Biometrics?
Biometrics is the science and technology of measuring and breaking down natural information. In data
innovation, biometrics relates to technologies that examine and measure physical human body features, such
as DNA, fingerprints, eye retinas and irises, voice patterns, facial patterns and hand measurements, for
validation or authentication purposes (Rouse, 2008).
In brief Biometrics is a distinct step to identity management that offers user convenience, increased security,
cost-effective provisioning and a non-repudiated, compliant audit trail for the system user and operator.
Biometric consist of a reader or scanning device, Software that converts the scanned information into digital
form and compares match points and a database that stores the biometric data for comparison.
Biometrics are applicable in several areas or almost all areas now, areas like commercial as a whole that in
terms of banking sectors, buying and selling, airport etc. the government areas as in law enforcement
agencies, immigration agency, custom agency etc. and in forensic areas for criminal investigation, terrorist
identification, parenthood determination and missing children.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
The aim of the study is to design and develop a reliable, scalable and cost
effective Fingerprint based Student Attendance Monitoring system. This is
to be achieved by the following objectives:
(i)To carry out the analysis of manual processes involved in class attendance
and examination attendance.
(ii)To design a new system for the (i) above

RESEARCH PROBLEM
The traditional system is still mostly used in lecture room or laboratory session in
most institution today. Falsification in student attendance does occur rampantly in the
traditional method.
In other to prevent this problem, it is necessary to develop an Authentication System

for Students using fingerprint Biometric recognition that will be employed to track
and keep the attendance of every student in a particular class.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
- The type of research design used by me is Qualitative research A major chunk of my research will be
based on the conclusive research design.
- Top-down model was adopted. The result of the analysis was broken down into different components
where the design is started from the main component down to the elementary components.
The System was categorized into three major subsystems as follows,
1) Admin subsystem,
2) Lecturer subsystem and
3) Student subsystem.
Each of the listed subsystems above has a different user privileges to use the system.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The scope of this work is to develop a Fingerprint Based Student Attendance

monitoring System that will improve how attendance management is done by using
fingerprint as a form authentication for proof of attending a class by replacing the
traditional method.
To reduce the Paper works and reduce the human errors.
