The Automatic Attendance System is a project that utilizes RFID technology, NodeMCU, and XMPP to automate the attendance process. This repository contains the C++ programming code for the system.
- RFID technology for automatic identification and tracking of individuals.
- NodeMCU (ESP8266) microcontroller for data processing and communication.
- XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) for real-time messaging and notifications.
- Store and manage attendance data on a remote server.

Download required libraries for NodeMCU
To run the Automatic Attendance System, you'll need the following:
- RFID reader and tags
- NodeMCU (ESP8266) microcontroller
- XMPP server for messaging and notifications
- C++ compiler (such as GCC or Clang)
- Arduino IDE or a similar development environment
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/PrakasRavichandran/Automatic-Attendance-System.git - Connect the RFID reader to the NodeMCU board as per the hardware setup instructions.
- Set up and configure the XMPP server for messaging and notifications.
- Open the project in your preferred C++ development environment.
- Configure the necessary parameters such as WiFi credentials and XMPP server details in the code.
- Compile and upload the code to the NodeMCU board.
- Power on the Automatic Attendance System.
- The RFID reader will detect the RFID tags in proximity.
- The NodeMCU board will process the tag data and communicate with the XMPP server.
- The attendance data will be stored on the remote server and can be accessed as required.
