Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to detect the attendance of students and lecturers based on location and time using the Xamarin Framework. The attendance of students and lecturers is very important for the effectiveness of performance monitoring in Indorama Enjinering Polytechnic campus. The current attendance system is carried out in a conventional manner, namely by using paper media to record the attendance of students and lecturers in class in each semester. Recorded attendance data consists of names, class location, time, and signatures of students and lecturers. This research replaces the conventional method by using Android Xamarin Framework technology. Students and lecturers use Android-based mobile devices to get the latitude and longitude location of the activated Global Positioning System (GPS). The system will get the precise location of students and lecturers and save the users data into a database. The lecturer verifies student attendance by providing a QR Code that can be scanned by students to ensure that the student is present in class in real-time. This research is expected to be a solution to facilitate the process of recording attendance of students and lecturers in terms of monitoring the academic performance of students and lecturers at the campus
