ABSTRACT
Since entering the information age, educational informatization reform has become the inevitable trend of the development of colleges and universities. The traditional education management methods, especially the classroom attendance methods, not only need to rely on a large number of manpower for data collection and analysis but also cannot dynamically monitor students' attendance and low efficiency. The development of Internet of things technology provides technical support for the informatization reform of education management in colleges and universities and makes the classroom attendance management in colleges and universities have a new development direction. In this study, a college smart classroom attendance management system based on RFID technology and face recognition technology is constructed under the architecture of the Internet of things, and the corresponding simulation experiments are carried out. The experimental results show that the smart classroom attendance management system based on RFID technology can accurately identify the absence and substitution of students and has the advantages of fast response and low cost. However, its recognition is easily affected by obstructions, which requires students to place identification cards uniformly. The smart classroom attendance management system based on face recognition technology can accurately record and identify the situation of students entering and leaving the classroom and identify the situations of being late and leaving early, absenteeism, and substitute classes. The experimental results are basically consistent with the sample results, and the error rate is low. However, the system is easily affected by environmental light, students' sitting posture, expression, and other factors, so it cannot be recognized. Generally speaking, both can meet the needs of classroom attendance in colleges and universities and have high accuracy and efficiency.
