This project aims to create a portable device that is used to check student attendance based on their student ID card.

This project includes two main components:

• A Card Reader Device
• A Web Server

Card Reader Device

This device is designed for reading student card, indicates student information and save these information into SD card. The device can connect to a server (locally or globally) to manipulate student's attendance information.

Hardware

PCB

Designed in Altium 18.

Manufactured in china.

Cover

Designed using Fusion360.

Created by 3D printing and laser cutting.

Embedded software

Microcontroller: ESP32 DEV KIT V1

Peripherals: RDM6300 RFID reader, RTC module, SD card reader, 3-state button, voltage converter, lipo battery, lipo charger.

Run on both core of an ESP32 using FreeRTOS. Compiled by ESP-IDF with Arduino core as a component.

• ESP-IDF version: 3.2
• Compiler version: 5.2.0
• Arduino components version: 1.0.2

Web Server

Written in PHP 7.3.18

Based on:

• Xampp v7.3.18
• Lavarel framework 5.6.22
