Attendance Scanning

 * Problem:

Alright so..... in order to provide a more efficient and less class disruptions for taking attendance, our team choose for our project, "Attendance Scanning".

The barcode scanner can be connected to a computer directly to a computer with a USB connection. When using Google spreadsheets, the scanned data from barcodes is instantly put onto the spreadsheet without any other software needed. The Minimal Attendance Program that was written by Scott Foerster which let me test taking attendance by either manually entering in the barcode numbers or scrolling through each name and entering in the attendance using the spacebar. The Attendance Program could be used with the barcode scanner which requires numbers that are in the barcode font and the numbers that are in the program.

Room Access
The door has to automatically open the lock after a pattern of knocks is accepted by the sensor. After the pattern is accepted, the arduino thus allows the machine on the door to turn the handle and open the lock. We haven't gotten very far with this part of the project yet. We have looked at the weekly reports of a user who has already done this, and we have looked at the machine itself in the school.
