This project is about the portable student attendance system used to record digitally student’s attendance in class. This system is dedicated to Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS students which use their matrix cards as medium for recognition. It is chosen to shorten the time of recording attendance compared to the manual method. The student attendance system can be practiced using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) as a medium for data recording. The microchip-embedded cards use RFID reader to record the attendance in class. This system involves the circuit fabrication as well as the programming. It is found that this system is suitable for students’ attendance purpose as well as replacing the existing inefficient method.
