Abstract
The purpose of this research is to design and implement an attendance system based on internet of things (IoT) . The proposed system integrated two types of attendance systems, face recognition based attendance system (FRA) and fingerprint-based attendance system (FPA), with a central server. The FRA was developed in a Raspberry Pi mini-computer using Python programming language and Openc CV library. The FPA, on the other hand, was developed using Node MCU ESP8266 and Fingerprint scanner AS608 with Adafruit Fingerprint library. Both FRA and FPA are connected to a web server with a database engine through the internet connection and sensing attendance data using the HTTP_POST method. The server was developed using Apache Webserver, PHP programming language, and MySQL database engine. The server serves two main purposes, which are to record the attendance data sent by the FPA and FRA, and generate an attendance report based on the user query. The system testing was done in a local network. The result showed that both the subsystems and the integrated system worked well
