Abstract


The credibility and validity of attendance system in various institutions of the economy have always been a major issue. The conventional method of marking attendance is not reliable as colleagues or friends can sign for each other. The instructor has to take a roll call of the students present in class to validate the attendance. This is time-consuming and may not be reliable. Hence, a new approach using android studio. An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is used for developing android applications with firebase as its database. In this paper, the attendance problem is solved by developing an android attendance system which facial recognition with Global Positioning System (GPS) has integrated into it. The solution was implemented and tested on an android device. With this approach, it is impossible for any student not present in class to be marked present. The lecturer can also generate a report of the class attendance which can be exported in excel format for further processing.
