    RFID for attendance is quite interesting. In order to pick a better one, you'll have to tell us your criteria. I'm bit excited to know about RFID based attendance system.

    RFID is easier to use and the most used system. It can be implemented by setting an RFID card for each individual. Most of the institutions use this system. Biometrics would require more sophisticated software and programming based on eye or finger print patterns.

    I think biometrics is the better option. It may be cost effective overall. In Bangalore some of the high priced apartment blocks have introduced biometrics for lifts that directly open into the apartments.

    This has the best of both:

    I want to know which is the better system to mark attendance -RFID or ...?
    Oh! You mean RFID cards.
    I immediately thought you meant <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microchip_implant_%28human%29" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Microchip Implant %28Human%29</a>, and I was horrified. 😭

    Yeah! 😀 Exactly! 😀 . Any idea which is more cost effective? RFID or Biometric?

    As you said both system have some advantages and disadvantages, RFID (Smart Card) is very sophisticated system but as we are going to use in college there might be chance for Proxy attendance while in case of Biometric this problem is solved.

    In my final year i have made a project which used both FingerPrint + Smart Card for Attendance. This is very useful system like if you want to use as a attendance then you have to use both system and if you want to use as Library solution then your Only Smart Card can be used no need to put fingerprint same way if you want to open any door automatically you can use Smart Card Only.

    Yeah! 😀 Exactly! 😀 . Any idea which is more cost effective? RFID or Biometric?
    I think now a days there is no much difference for both. But although RFID solution is little costly as you have to buy TAG for all the Students.

    Offttopic:- While if we are using Biometric we can save this cost as we are using their physical characteristics.

    To accurately determine cost you must have a clear objective. So why are we taking attendance in college classes?

    In my 5 years in college and then several years of night classes, I can't remember attendance being taken at all after the first day (and that was probably so the professor could connect a face with a name). Do they take attendance these days?

    I'm not sure why we're talking about using RFID cards for college students; especially for attendance. When I was in college, professors would take attendance by calling our names or roll numbers.

    PS: It isn't very reliable method. I seldom attended classes, but had 90% + attendance. Thanks to enthusiastic friends 😉
