Biometric & RFID Attendance

Automate your campus. Eliminate proxies and manual roll calls. Track Lecture-Wise Attendance using Biometrics, RFID Turnstiles, or Mobile Geofencing. Real-time insights for Deans and Parents.

CampusAlly Attendance System is a multi-modal tracking engine designed for universities. Unlike school systems that only track "Present/Absent" for the day, we track Subject-Wise Attendance to calculate the critical 75% Exam Eligibility metric automatically, ensuring compliance with UGC/AICTE norms.

Smart Capture Methods

Biometric Attendance

Hardware Integration

Seamlessly connect with your existing infrastructure.

  • Biometric: Integrate Face Recognition or Fingerprint scanners installed at lecture hall entrances.
  • RFID Turnstiles: Automate Library and Main Gate entry with student ID cards.
  • Real-time Sync: Data is pushed from devices to the cloud server instantly (latency < 2s).
Geofence Attendance

App-Based (Zero Hardware)

Modern solution for large campuses. No wiring required.

  • Geofencing: Students can mark attendance via the app only if they are inside the classroom coordinates.
  • QR Code: Professors flash a dynamic QR code on the projector; students scan to mark "Present".
  • Device Lock: Prevents "Buddy Punching" by locking the student account to a single device ID.

Academic Rules & Compliance

75% Attendance Calculator

Exam Eligibility Engine

Automate the tedious 75% calculation at semester end.

  • Subject-Wise: "80% in Physics, but only 60% in Math." Pinpoint exactly where the student lags.
  • Shortage Alerts: Auto-SMS to parents if attendance dips below the threshold mid-semester.
  • Condonation: workflows for Medical Leave or Sports Duty approvals to adjust the final percentage.
Faculty Attendance Tracking

Faculty & Staff Tracking

It's not just for students. Manage staff hours too.

  • Bio-Metric Payroll: Link staff attendance directly to the Payroll Module for salary processing.
  • Late Marks: Auto-deduct leave for late arrivals based on university policy (e.g., 3 Lates = 1 Casual Leave).
  • On-Duty (OD): Digital workflow for professors attending conferences or research work.

Parent Notification System

Parent Communication

Keep stakeholders informed automatically.

  • Absent SMS: Trigger an automated SMS to parents if the student is marked absent for the day.

Administrator FAQs

Does it integrate with our existing biometric devices?

Yes. We support API integration with major hardware brands like Essl, Matrix, and ZKTeco. We pull the logs directly from the device server.

What about Medical Leave?

Students can upload medical certificates via the app. Once the HOD approves, the system adjusts the eligibility calculation without changing the "Absent" status record.

Can we track practicals/labs separately?

Yes. The timetable module distinguishes between Theory and Practical sessions, allowing separate attendance tracking for labs.
