Abstract

Abstract The "Smart Attendance System Using QR Code" is an innovative project designed to revolutionize traditional attendance tracking in educational institutions. This system incorporates QR code technology, a Flask server, and a MySQL database to create a comprehensive and intelligent solution for student attendance management. The core functionality of the system revolves around the use of QR codes for student identification. Each student is assigned a unique QR code, and the system utilizes a scanning mechanism to efficiently record attendance. The QR code scanning process is quick, contactless, and minimizes the time traditionally spent on manual attendance. The Flask server acts as the central hub for processing attendance data. It facilitates communication between the QR code scanning module and the MySQL database. The server-side logic is implemented in Python, leveraging the versatility and efficiency of the language for seamless integration. The MySQL database serves as the repository for student attendance records. It allows for efficient storage, retrieval, and management of attendance data, enabling the generation of reports based on specific requirements. The database architecture ensures data integrity and security, contributing to the reliability of the attendance system. The system offers not only real-time attendance tracking but also the flexibility to generate customized reports. Educators and administrators can access attendance data on-demand, providing valuable insights into student attendance patterns and trends. An additional feature of the system is its ability to detect and raise alerts for faulty QR codes. This ensures the integrity of the attendance data by notifying administrators of any irregularities or attempts at unauthorized access. The theoretical framework of the project emphasizes the integration of QR code technology, server-side processing, and a robust database structure. The system's intelligence lies in its ability to streamline attendance processes, offer real-time insights, and enhance overall administrative efficiency. The "Smart Attendance System Using QR Code" represents a significant advancement in educational technology, offering a smart, reliable, and user-friendly solution for attendance management. This project not only addresses the challenges of traditional attendance tracking but also sets the stage for the integration of smart technologies to optimize educational processesKeywordsQR code, Smart attendance , QR scanner
