Abstract

In an era where technological advancements drive improvements across various sectors, enhancing efficiency in educational management systems is crucial. This paper presents a novel wireless attendance system that leverages the ESP-NOW protocol, which offers advantages over traditional Wi-Fi by enabling low-power, low-latency, and direct device-to-device communication without the need for an intermediary network. The system employs ESP32 modules configured as both slave and master devices. Slave devices, positioned on the lecturer’s desk, interact with students' smartphones when the lecturer initiates the class, while master devices, strategically placed at multiple locations within the classroom, compile and consolidate attendance data for each room. The system incorporates RSSI-based restrictions via the ESP-NOW protocol to prevent overlapping attendance between rooms and ensure that students can only record their presence if they are physically within the designated classroom. Attendance data is automatically logged and made accessible in real-time through a dedicated mobile application for lecturers. Empirical testing demonstrates 100% accuracy in attendance recording, with an average verification time of less than 1 second and a data transmission rate ranging from 700 to 800 Bytes/seconds.
