Challenges we ran into
During the development of the WiFi Based Classroom Attendance Application, a significant challenge was encountered related to WiFi Signal Strength Variability:
-
Issue:
- The signal strength of WiFi networks can vary due to factors like interference, obstacles, and device-specific differences. This led to occasional inaccuracies in detecting students' presence solely based on signal strength.
-
Resolution:
- Implemented a combination of WiFi and Bluetooth technologies to enhance location accuracy. This dual-technology approach mitigated the impact of WiFi signal fluctuations, providing a more reliable indication of a student's presence.
-
Additional Measures:
- Incorporated a time-based constraint for attendance submission to ensure that students could only mark their attendance within a specific timeframe at the beginning of the class, preventing late submissions or potential misuse.
-
User Education:
- Provided clear instructions to users about the system's functioning, emphasizing the importance of being in close proximity to the designated classroom for accurate attendance recording.
This multidimensional strategy, combining WiFi and Bluetooth, introducing time constraints, and emphasizing user understanding, effectively addressed the challenge and contributed to the overall robustness of the attendance system.
