Team Phottandence presented a smartphone app called Phottendance that uses facial recognition to take attendance for classes in seconds by having the faculty take a photo of the entire class. The app recognizes faces in the photo and marks attendance in the cloud backend without collecting biometric data. Phottendance has cost advantages over hardware-based attendance trackers as it only requires a smartphone. However, students may dislike that proxies are not possible with the facial recognition system.

- 1. Team Name-Phottandence Participant 1- Yogeshwar Dan Charan Participant 2- Anirudh Goel Phottendance Making attendance time 300X shorter
- 2. Purpose ● Faculty wastes 5 mins in each lecture for attendance. ● Students can barely tolerate another 5 mins of torture after lecture. ● A mundane and repetitive task; good for computers, not for humans.
