Established in the early 2010s in Vadodara, Gujarat, this private institution has rapidly become a leading player in Indian college education. Offering a diverse range of programs such as engineering, management, pharmacy, and more, the campus is equipped with modern facilities, fostering a dynamic learning environment. With a commitment to academic excellence, research, and holistic student development, the institution prepares students for professional challenges. Affiliated with esteemed organizations, it continues to contribute significantly to student growth and community development, solidifying its position as a key player in the educational landscape.
The university sought enhancements in its existing Matrix Time-Attendance Solution to accommodate 25,000 more users over its existing capabilities. The current fingerprint-based attendance system performed well but the institution wanted to explore an upgrade that could speed up the attendance process as a whole. Hence they were considering a shift to a face recognition biometric attendance system. Additionally, the university aimed to extend the attendance system to hostels for improved student management. Addressing concerns about staff convenience, the institution prioritized a user-friendly punching system. This case study delves into the university’s pursuit of an advanced attendance management solution to optimize efficiency.
The major challenges that the university faced for the smooth operation of Its Attendance Management System were:
- Need for High-Speed Attendance Marking
The university aimed to enhance attendance marking speed and efficiency, necessitating a shift from the existing fingerprint-based system to a more advanced face recognition biometric attendance system. With a continually expanding user base of faculties, students, and teachers, the university sought Face as a credential that accommodates the increasing demands for high-speed attendance management. - Extension of Existing Attendance Solution
Recognizing the need for an attendance system for students across university hostels, the university aimed to extend its existing system to their hostels. This extension should offer enhanced protection and monitoring capabilities, ensuring efficient tracking of student’s entry and exit times for improved safety and management.
These requirements of an upgraded biometric attendance system prompted the university to seek innovative solutions, aiming to enhance the overall efficiency and effectiveness of its attendance management processes.
Covering these requirements, Matrix efficiently provided solutions to better their existing time attendance solution.
