Abstract
Smart attendance system is the new way of taking student attendance using smart phone devices together with intelligent sensors. In many universities in Malaysia, students' attendance need to be tracked and become one of the requirements for a student to pass a subject. Common approach of attendance taking is using paper based attendance. Besides that, RFID technology becoming commonly used to replace the paper based attendance taking method. In this study, a smart attendance system using Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) beacon (UniSas) is proposed and implemented in Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). Further, the performance (accuracy, time-consumption and energy-consumption) of the paper-based attendance, RFID attendance system and UniSas are compared. Results showed that the proposed UniSas outperforms traditional method and any current smart attendance systems. � 2018 IEEE.
