Next Generation Attendance System
Every day in schools, it is the same routine. The teacher brings along an attendance sheet with the roll numbers and names of students. Then, each name is called out and a student’s attendance is marked based on if the teacher hears “present,” otherwise, it is assumed that the student is “absent” during that day.
This is an old system to record attendance. Though it is still the most effective way of doing it, there are many flaws that come with this method.
The students can falsify attendance by saying “present” for another. On the flip side, a call of “present” may not be heard and unwittingly, a student loses attendance for a day. Not to mention that this method is also very tedious. It takes at least five minutes of an average class session of 45 minutes to complete the entire roll call.
Today, our country is progressing. Students require undivided attention from their teachers to focus on their main job in schools: to study. We must surely have better ways of making sure a student gets more time to study, and a teacher does not have to repeat a tedious process on a daily basis.
The solution is here and it is quite simple.
LOKSUN has pioneered a smart attendance app, that works on a real-time attendance software system to capture on-time attendance in classrooms. Its main draw is the simplicity with which it works. There is no need for additional infrastructure since it works on the CCTV camera infrastructure already installed in schools. The smart attendance software will send real-time updates to both parents and management so that you can be up-to-date about your child’s whereabouts.

We have already seen the limitations of the manual attendance method using attendance sheets. To see the effectiveness of this system, let’s look at the other methods of capturing attendance available to us right now.
1) Biometric attendance: This method is quick and accurate, but requires additional infrastructure setup
2) Punch cards: Same as biometric in terms of speed, but punch cards can be falsified. This system requires additional infrastructure too
As you can see, LOKSUN’s smart attendance system is both convenient and accurate to ensure student attendance is captured effectively. The system also comes equipped with a school attendance SMS system to make sure that you are never left in the dark about your children’s or your students’ whereabouts.
This system is 100 percent accurate and the cost of installation is also cost friendly since there is no extra infrastructure required other than the CCTV cameras that are already present on campus. This system can work during both day and night, since the CCTV cameras are already equipped to capture images in night mode as well.
