Lab Trac

LabTrac is an advanced Attendance Recording System designed by and for the members of amFOSS. Tracks list of amFOSS WiFi networks near you.

How it Works?

  1. Runs a cron job script on the member's machine, at regular intervals.
  2. During the installation, the member will have to save the amFOSS CMS credentials on their machine, which will be then, used for authenticating the user.
  3. NodeMCU creates a random WiFi Network for every 5 mins (akin to something like, 'amFOSS_XXXXXXXXXXX').
  4. The member's machine will search for the amFOSS WiFi network in list of WiFi Networks (BSSID) around it.
  5. All this data, along with the credentials will be sent to amFOSS CMS server through API at regular intervals as AttendanceLogs.
