This application is designed to help organisations or programmes that need to manage attendance for thousands of people on a daily basis that are based at multiple locations.

Technology

The app is available as native Android or iPhone apps. It is built on HTML 5 and uses a server-side facial recognition API to compare recorded images against reference images.
