Invention History

As is well known, student attendance control is a key item in any educational institution.

In face-to-face teaching, students are subject to the mandatory frequency and rigidity of time, and for their final assessment a minimum number of attendance is required. In addition, there is a need to monitor student attendance for a variety of other reasons.

In the usual way, student attendance is controlled by making calls and manually annotating a table, which links the student's name, class / subject, day-time, and presence (yes / no).

More recently, automated systems to control student attendance and absence have emerged, which are carried out by student-bearing badges, which are identified by readers positioned in the classroom entrances, who, in addition to allowing access, record the attendance of students. respective carriers.

Shortcomings of the prior art The major drawback of controlling the manual attendance record is that it is necessary to generate a class / subject form, which must be linked to a presence form where both the call and the control itself is done manually.

The drawback related to the badge is that it can be easily forgotten or even lost, even though the holder may be another student, ie this system does not guarantee that the student is actually present in a particular classroom. as it is possible for any student to wear the badge of a third party and register on their reading device.

Summary of the invention

It was thinking of these drawbacks that, after countless research and studies, the inventor, a person linked to the branch, created and developed the object of the present patent, idealizing a system for registering the presence of students in the premises of educational institutions in which not only the qualities Physical and functional aspects were considered in the design of its manufacture, but also the shape, arrangement and location of its parts and components that, correctly positioned, brought a system of high reliability with great durability of its components.

Thus, the present patent was designed to obtain a attendance registration system with as few pieces as possible, conveniently configured and arranged to enable the student attendance registration system within the educational facilities to perform its functions efficiently and versatile. second to none without the drawbacks already mentioned.

The present patent application presents a practical and innovative system for registering students' presence in the facilities of all functional institutions, designed and developed according to the most modern techniques, thus enabling their preferential use in educational institutions. public and private education, from preschool to high school.

The system configuration, object of the present patent, comprises smart tags, called "RFID" tags, inserted in the pieces of the school uniform, which records in real time the presence of the students in the school premises.

Said "RFID" (Radio Frequency Identification) technology is a method of automatic identification by radio signals, remotely retrieving and storing data via said "RFID" tag devices.

The system for recording student attendance on the premises of the educational institutions, in this case, provides several benefits to both the institution that uses it and the students and their guardians, as can be seen below:

• Control of student attendance at school premises.

• Electronic call (reading intervals can be set during class).

• Control of access to rooms and laboratories.

• Monitoring by parents via "SMS" or website about the child's frequency (including whether the child is wearing appropriate clothing for the weather condition).

• Notification that the student used public transportation to get to school.

• Sending "SMS" messages, by school and at any time, to parents and guardians, informing events, messages, etc.

• Possibility of integration with the system

of school round.

• Location of lost clothing,

among other objects.

• Traceability of student assets (items

defined by parents).

• Integration with the school or public transport system.

• Integration with the snack canteen.

• Integration with management system

school / academic.

• Planning the amount of daily meals to be produced, based on the number of students attending the school.

• Improved inventory management with suppliers based on attendance and dropout numbers over days and months.

• Integration with single ticket.

• Obtain indicator for management and release of social benefits (scholarships).

Thus, it is to be understood that the system in question is extremely simple in its conception and, therefore, easy to implement, however, excellent practical and functional results are obtained, offering a system of registration of school attendance on known systems.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION According to what the above related illustrations illustrate, the "STUDENT RECORD SYSTEM FOR STUDENT INSTITUTION DEPENDENCE" object of the present invention relates to a method for detecting and recording the presence of students in the facilities of their educational institutions by means of "RFID" tags, conveniently arranged on school uniforms. Students are identified by reading the "RFID" tags on the uniforms, and the student is considered present if at least two items of their clothing are identified in a reading process.

More exactly the system is comprised of uniforms (1) that receive the smart tags (2) or "RFID" tags during their making, and at the time of purchase, or later, these garments are associated with the student (3) , directly in the school management system.

Identification at the school entrance is performed by reading the smart tags (2) by strategically placed portals (4).

In classrooms, readers and antennas automatically identify students (3) in the room, relating to the class being taught.

Student permanence (3) in the classroom is verified by scanning at school-defined time intervals for each class or classroom.

In school transportation students (3) can be identified through readers installed in portable collectors, connected to the internet through a "GPRS" connection. Said GPRS ("General Packet Radio Service") is a non-voice based service that allows the sending and receiving of information over a mobile telephone network.

The system for recording student attendance at educational facilities allows the following items to be structured:
