It is important to monitor student attendance at lectures. As their attendance reflects their participation and involvement in the educational process. One of the main challenges is the difficulty of accurately identifying students' attendance record to determine their participation in the education process. Most universities nowadays rely on traditional methods of recording their students' participation in lectures. Such methods do not accurately capture when students attend their classes. Most university lecturers still use traditional methods such as recording attendance using attendance sheets, which makes it difficult to determine the exact date and number of attendees. One of the problems is the time lost in the preparation process periodically, As I mentioned earlier, we have difficulty determining the exact date and number of attendees, It is also not possible to identify students who have to be excluded from a given class because they failed to attend their classed. So, we have developed a system to monitor student attendance using QR Code (SAM system).

In an ever-changing technological environment, the QR Code offers a wide range of uses. QR codes are used to store large amounts of data in a little amount of area. As a result, we decided to include QR codes in our system and presented a smart attendance system based on QR codes. Secure authentication is accomplished through the use of data-hiding techniques and the integrated QR Code. In our project, students use cell phones to scan QR codes that are shown by the teacher. When students scan this QR code, their attendance is immediately recorded based on their user id. It also goes through how the system checks student identification in order to prevent fake registrations.
