RFID & NFC Payment/Attendance System
In today's fast-paced world, the need for efficient RFID attendance tracking and read more secure payment systems is ever-growing. With advancements in technology, RFID attendance system automates the process of tracking attendance by assigning RFID tags or cards to individuals. When a person enters a designated area with an RFID reader, the reader scans their RFID tag or card and records their attendance. It's efficient and eliminates the need for manual attendance tracking.
RFID payment system use RFID technology for contactless payments. Users have RFID-enabled cards or devices, and by tapping them near an RFID reader, they can make secure and quick transactions.
NFC attendance system is a subset of RFID technology that enables short-range wireless communication. In an NFC attendance system, NFC-enabled devices or cards are used to record attendance, similar to RFID. NFC is known for its simplicity and security.
