Abstract
This project is developed by using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
system and student card to get student attendance. Before this lecturer needs to use
the paper to get the student attendance. There were a lot of problems when using the
paper as student attendance such as cheating. This project can help lecturer to reduce
the problem like that by design automatic attendance using RFID and student card.
The project system was running by get the code of card student to compare with the
database in Access. Firstly, lecturer needs to fill forms in
an interface like lecturer name, subject and code subject. This part is important
because we need the information in this part to use in the next interface. In the next
interface, lecturer needs to choose port and speed to make connection with RFID
reader. After the reader was ready, process to get attendant will started. Students
need to swap their card on the reader and the code from the card will use to compare
with database in Access. When the code is match with database, the student
information like name and ID number will show on interface and that information
will trigger into a list. This list will use as a student attendance. In that list, all
information like student name and ID number will attached including the lecturer
name and subject. If the code were not match with database, it means that student
was in the wrong class or not registers yet in that subject. When this happen, lecturer
can register that student by using registering form and the information of that student
will be update into database. This project will help lecturer taking the student
attendance more easily and automatically. As the conclusion, RFID technology can
be used in student attendance application.
