ABSTRACT
In this paper we propose a new student attendance system based on biometric authentication protocol. This
system is basically using the face detection and the recognition protocols to facilitate checking students’
attendance in the classroom. In the proposed system, the classroom’s camera is capturing the students’
photo, directly the face detection and recognition processes will be implemented to produce the instructor
attendance report. Actually, this system is more efficient than others student attendance methods since the
detection and the recognition are considered to be the best and fastest method for biometric attendance
system. Regarding to the students and instructor sides, the system is working without any preparation and
with no more effort.
