Abstract

: The rapid advancement of mobile technology has revolutionized traditional systems, including attendance tracking. This thesis presents the design and development of an Attendance System using Near Field Communication (NFC) cards integrated with a Flutter-based mobile application. The system aims to automate attendance recording, ensuring efficiency, accuracy, and scalability in educational and organizational settings. NFC technology enables secure, contactless identification, while Flutter, a cross-platform framework, provides a seamless user experience across Android and iOS devices. The proposed system includes an NFC-enabled mobile application for scanning cards, a backend database for storing attendance records, and a user-friendly interface for administrators and users. Key objectives include reducing manual errors, minimizing time consumption, and enhancing data security. The methodology involves requirement analysis, system design, and implementation using Flutter with Dart programming language, alongside Firebase for real-time data management. Results demonstrate a significant reduction in processing time compared to paper-based systems, with an accuracy rate exceeding 95%. The systems advantages include portability, costeffectiveness, and ease of integration, though limitations such as NFC hardware dependency are noted. This work contributes to modernizing attendance management and lays the foundation for future enhancements like biometric integration. This NFC-based solution provides greater accuracy, security, and efficiency compared to traditional attendance systems. It is particularly beneficial for institutions and organizations that require a fast, scalable, and automated attendance management system. With its ease of use, contactless functionality, and real-time capabilities, this system offers a modern and effective alternative to conventional attendance tracking methods, significantly improving operational efficiency and user convenience.Keywords: Attendance System, NFC, Flutter, Mobile Application, Automation, Firebase
