Abstract:
In the University grading system, lecturers have their own criteria, one of
them is attendance. Students must attend the class in order to get a perfect grade or at
least bonus score. But nobody knows what will happen, maybe students get sick or
they have to attend something important. Some lecturers accept excuses, but some
others don’t. Maybe some students choose to let it go, but some others choose to
cheat by asking their classmates to sign their attendance. This attendance cheating is
commonly called “tipsen”, where we ask others to sign our attendance but we do not
attend the class. To solve this cheating problem, I proposed this thesis to make a
fingerprint attendance device.
