Abstract

With Covid19 being endemic, it is very essential to continue proper physical hygiene protocols even today to avoid escalation. To ensure hygiene inside educational institutions, many governing bodies-imposed protocols to insist students wear hand gloves and facemasks. Such an implementation, however, has increased surgical waste in and around educational institutions, and also there is a rise in allergies due to the constant use of hand gloves by the students. Hence, a prototype of a hand sanitization-based attendance monitoring system has been proposed in the current research paper. This proposed sanitizer with attendance through remote monitoring (SWARM) uses Raspberry Pi devices to capture the image of a student's identity card holding the registration number and through a bar code analysis module of computer vision, the ID number is extracted. This ID number is compared with a master attendance file to mark the students' presence and then the updated file is shared with the concerned teacher via email. Such a setup is installed in the laboratory premise, thereby reducing the unnecessary use and disposal of surgical waste within the educational premise.
