Abstract

Educational institution in developing countries is a vast sector and it is expanding rapidly. With the rapid growth of technologies, educational institutions are still lagging behind. For identification of students they still lie on manual handwritten ID card and files. If proper ID card system is introduced then it would be much easier to identify a student and can track his her progress. Therefore, in this research we implemented advanced using of QR code and student ID generation. We tried level best to make right implementation of QR code with student ID card. Automated student ID had image capturing facility and requirements of an ID and there is no need of hand written ID card. QR code is attached into ID card and student personal details can be found by scanning the QR code with smart phones (downloaded & installed QR reader software). QR code is said to be the next generation of bar code and using QR code with ID card brought positive outcomes. While using software tools, identity cards works fine and suitable for an educational institution as it is free. Thus, ID card will be a perfect use of modern technology in developing countries.
