The document describes an automatic attendance system using Arduino, a fingerprint module, and GSM module. The system aims to address issues with traditional paper-based attendance methods by automating the process. When a student's fingerprint is scanned, it is matched to fingerprints stored in the system. A message is then sent via GSM to notify parents if the student's attendance is recorded. The system uses components like Arduino, an LCD display, fingerprint module, and GSM module to automatically identify students, record attendance, and communicate attendance records to parents. It provides benefits like reducing opportunities for cheating, easing the process of tracking attendance, and saving time compared to traditional methods.
