Scan-F : Zero-contact Biometric System

Scan-F is a biometric attendance system that reduces unwanted inter-human contact. It is built with the COVID-19 pandemic in mind, and it provides a safe, efficient way to record attendance.

Whats new in our system 😮:

• Existing systems use a single fingerprint sensor, mounted on a wall to record the attendance. This single sensor will be used by hundreds of people and it is not safe considering the pandemic situation.
• Our solution is inbuilt fingerprint sensor in mobile phones. These fingerprint sensors can be used to record individual person’s attendance.
• By this method, every person will have their own sensor for giving their attendance. In other words, a person's fingerprint sensor will not be used by another for recording attendance

Components 🔨:

• ESP8266 board to create local WIFI network. This WIFI network is used to check whether the person is in the right place, while giving the attendance and prevents malpractice.
• A Mobile application, made using Flutter. It helps the person in authenticating using the inbuilt fingerprint sensor.
• Cloud Firestore, an online database. This database is used to store all the attendance data.
