Design and Implementation of Biometric-Based Student Information Retrieval System Using Finger Prints Recognition

Abstract

This study designed and implements a biometric-based student information retrieval system using finger print recognition. The findings showed that the existing manual system is prone to lots of errors such difficulties in accessing records, wrong data entry, difficulties in data manipulation, identity management and difficulties in updating students’ records. Structured system analysis and design methodology was adopted for this research. The design and implementation of the developed application software showed that computerized student information retrieval system using biometrics greatly enhanced the documentation, manipulation and retrieval of student information in a more accurate, fast and secured manner.
