Fingerprint recognition is the most popular method in the biometric era due to its accuracy and uniqueness. Manually documenting and maintaining attendance on a sheet by queuing up in front of the class is a complicated and time-killing method. In this paper, we have proposed a biometric attendance management system that takes the attendance of the students and maintains the records in an educational institution in a real-time environment. The system consists of three stages- ‘enrollment’, ‘attendance’ & ‘data storage’. The process of fingers' enrollment and attendance reporting is performed using the fingerprint module. Using the SD Card module, student's attendance details are stored in a file. The system prevents the tendency of giving proxy which has become a bad trend nowadays.
