Introduction

What is Biometrics?

Who uses this technology?

The Military

Foreign military bases initially used this modern technology in controlling access to their high-security facilities.

Who uses this technology?

Business It has been opened

for public use and is now being developed for business such as communications, networking, e-commerce, manufacturing and retail establishments.

Proposal for LagunaNorthwestern College

This research paper aims to analyze the possibility of introducing a similar system for the personnel and customer management of Laguna Northwestern College.

Background of the study

Biometrics and Magnetic Coding are automated attendance

systems which are useful in obtaining comprehensive attendance

information for colleges and universities

Difference between manual and automated attendance

This process takes about 5-10 minutes of their meetings or approximately 10-20 minutes for a 3-hour subject.

With the manual attendance system, roll-call already consumes 35-70 minutes of his one week class schedule.

Theoretical FrameworkTony Mansfield

according to Tony Mansfield, millions of times easier, and requires only that your facial geometry match the photograph recorded on your ID voucher (whether a passport or an ID card or a biometric visa) or that your fingerprints match the templates recorded on the voucher that you proffer to an immigration control officer, for example, or to a bank manager, to underpin your transactions and interactions with them.

Theoretical Framework

Identification is the job of proving that each person has one and only one entry on the population register.

attendance and payroll process of Laguna Northwestern College?

Scopes and Limits of the study

The scope of the study covers the introducing LNC’s attendance management system from manual to automated system. The researchers only include the study of how this system benefits the attendance management of students of LNC.

The research has several limitations that must be acknowledged. This Study provided little information that does not include the program for the biometric hardware and presenting an actual biometric machine including its cost, capacity and usage of school facilities and other expenses.

Review of Related Literature

Chapter 2

Foreign Literature

•  Originating in criminology, biometric technology has matured over the years with applications in diverse disciplines. However, its use in business and accounting is still in its infancy, and many issues about its role in information systems security are unresolved.

Foreign study

The purpose of the study is to assess the feasibility of fingerprint, iris and face recognition technologies for these applications, to identify unknowns and the risks associated with the use of biometrics in such a national identity scheme, and to make recommendations for how some of these risks might be addressed should such a scheme proceed.

Tony Mansfield and Marek Rejman –Greene on the Feasibility Study on the Use of Biometrics in an Entitlement Scheme

Local Literature

• The system is remotely operated and is powered by a local power source such as an outlet in an office building. Globe Telecom provides the wireless service and the kiosk is equipped with RFID recognition. It also has a fingerprint scanner to verify the identity of their members, which works in tandem with an electronic card reader.

Local Study

” RFID-based interaction into the mix are very relevant in everyday transactions. Most importantly, (from the point of view of enabling biometric authentication) each kiosk supports fingerprint-based biometric authentication.

Justification of the study

Based on the research, the possible benefits of the study would be

increasing the security of the school Decreasing the scenarios of student

having proxy on written attendance, Reduce human error
