Technological tool to modernize the teacher attendance record at the popular university of cesar, aguachica branch, using rfid technology

Abstract

RFID is a radio-frequency identification technology that allows organizations such as universities, schools, and industries to track the entry and exit of people and products within their facilities. This system, with its range of benefits, enables the use of a process that has become an indispensable technology in the 21st century. Radio-frequency identification is increasingly becoming a crucial tool for large-scale companies, particularly those implementing logistics processes, which are the most frequent users, benefiting from the wide range of advantages it offers. This technology has been implemented as an ideal replacement for the older process of reading barcodes and QR codes in industrial production. This project proposes the design and implementation of a teacher attendance management tool using RFID technology at the Popular University of Cesar, Aguachica Campus, with the aim of automating manual processes. Methodologically, a qualitative, applied research study was conducted, in which the AsisDoc RFID system was designed, a functional prototype was implemented, and field tests were carried out with faculty to evaluate its performance. The results demonstrate its effectiveness: rapid identification, real-time monitoring, and a reduction in human error. The implemented solution facilitated automated attendance control through an intuitive and user-friendly interface. Thus, it is concluded that radio frequency identification not only modernizes institutional processes but also contributes to strengthening a dynamic and efficient technological academic culture. The use of this technology represents progress toward the digital transformation of universities, offering a sustainable, functional, and replicable alternative in other educational and administrative environments.
