RFID based attendance system consists of RFID Reader, RFID Tag, LCD display and
microcontroller unit. RFID can be interfaced to microcontroller through USART. Data is
transferred from RFID cards to reader and from there to microcontroller.
Radio frequency technology is used in many applications. RFID tags are of two types
1) Passive Tags and 2) Active Tags. Passive tags contain 13 digit number tag inbuilt in it,
where as active tag is read/write tag i.e. one can read from the tag and write to the tag.
This project uses passive tag. In real time, one can issue active tags to the students,
with their roll numbers as their tags. RFID reader contains a copper winding in it. This
winding acts as an antenna.
When the tag is placed near the reader, due to the induced mutual inductance energy,
data is transferred to reader. Reader then transfers data to the microntroller.
Microcontroller checks for the data continuously, if any data is received, microcontroller
compares the data in data base. If the tag is authenticated, microcontroller takes the
attendance.

Reader then reads the data in the tag and transmits to the controller.
5.
Microcontroller compares the tag with the database. If the tag is matched LCD
displays authenticated and takes your attendance
6.
Now place another card which is not present in the database and check for
authentication.
7.
Now LCD displays Un authorized and it will never take the attendance.
8.
RFID attendance system is secured, but there is a chance of misusing the cards.
One person can give another persons attendance if he/she had RFID card.
If the card was swiped for more than once, there is a chance of giving attendance
for next days also if code is not written properly.
