Item Fingerprint Based Student Attendance Management System With Automatic Excel Computation(LAUTECH Journal of Engineering and Technology, Faculty of Engineering Ladoke Akintola University, Ogbomosho. Available online at, 2018) Abdullateef, A. I; Ekwemeka, B.C; Itopa, V; Makinwa, T.B; Alim, S.AFingerprint is considered to be the best and most widely used biometrics recognition and verification pattern due its uniqueness for every individual. This study focused on the development of a fingerprint students’ attendance system carried out to curb the problems associated with manual methods of taking students attendance in institutions. The design was carried out using appropriate mathematical model, formulae and block diagram representation while Proteus software simulator was used to simulate functionality of the designed circuit. An attendance algorithm was developed and implemented using coolTerm software and Excel spreadsheet. The system was tested using 15 students’ fingerprints which involves enrollment, authentication and report generation processes. Each student was enrolled with a unique identification. During verification and attendance capture at different times, the system exhibits extremely low (0%) False Acceptance Rate (FAR), extremely high (100%) True Accept Rate (TAR) and extremely low (0%) False Reject Rate (FRR). This study has established the effectiveness of students attendance capture using fingerprint as a more secure, credible and error free to impersonation and buddy punching as associated with the existing manual-paper based system
