Adithya Sanjeev Byalpi, Anush · 2018
Intelligent voice assistants are taking over many domains to improve the user's comfort and improve the scope of the devices used. They are being implemented in devices ranging from mobiles to standalone devices which just house the assistant to be integrated with smart devices. This can be clearly seen with the exponential growth with the impact it has had on society and ever-growing applications they can be used for. The project presented in this paper aims to integrate one of the popular voice assistants - Alexa, by Amazon to modernize the conventional methods of an attendance system. The assistant receives the prompt from the teacher, authorizing the start of the process of attendance. This is followed by the input from the students for the updating of the attendance database present on a server. This helps in digitalization of the attendance records in one go, reducing the time and effort needed by the user.
