Contactless Attendance Method with Face Recognition, Body Temperature Measurement and GPS System Using Blockchain Technology

Abstract

Most workplace is recording their employee’s attendance via attendance system. The existing attendance systems include traditional method, punch card, QR Code, RFID and biometric. However, these methods require an employee’s physical interaction directly with the system. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, any direct physical contact with the system should be avoided. Moreover, the existing attendance system platforms lack the security foundations upon which vulnerable to cyber threat, such as forge by irresponsible employees and unauthorized users. This paper aims to develop a contactless attendance system. The system is using face recognition and GPS location to record attendance with body temperature on blockchain technology.
