This document describes an RFID-based smart attendance system. It begins by explaining what RFID is and how it works, transmitting data between a tag and reader using radio frequencies. It then discusses how RFID technology can be used to automatically take student attendance by having each student carry an RFID tag scanned by a reader when entering the classroom. The document outlines the hardware and software requirements and provides schematics of the circuit. It describes the process of a student swiping their tag by the reader, which transmits the data to a microcontroller to check against a database and mark their attendance on an LCD display. Advantages include reducing proxy attendance.
