BIOMETRIC ATTENDANCE SYSTEM

A biometric attendance machine is a device which is used to verify the identity of a person. The characteristics used to identify a person include fingerprints, voice patterns, iris, face recognition and hand measurements. Biometric data cannot be lent and hacking of Biometric data is complicated hence it makes it safer to use than traditional methods of authentication like passwords which can be lent and shared. Passwords do not have the ability to judge the user, but rely only on the data provided by the user, which can easily be stolen while Biometrics work on the uniqueness of each individual.
