With Covid19 being endemic, it is very essential to continue proper physical hygiene protocols even today to avoid escalation. To ensure hygiene inside educational institutions, many governing bodies-imposed protocols to insist students wear hand gloves and facemasks. Such an implementation, however, has increased surgical waste in and around educational institutions, and also there is a rise in allergies due to the constant use of hand gloves by the students. Hence, a prototype of a hand sanitization-based attendance monitoring system has been proposed in the current research paper. This proposed sanitizer with attendance through remote monitoring (SWARM) uses Raspberry Pi devices to capture the image of a student’s identity card holding the registration number and through a bar code analysis module of computer vision, the ID number is extracted. This ID number is compared with a master attendance file to mark the students’ presence and then the updated file is shared with the concerned teacher via email. Such a setup is installed in the laboratory premise, thereby reducing the unnecessary use and disposal of surgical waste within the educational premise.

The main objective of this research work is to enhance the data storage capacity of the QR codes. By achieving the research aim, we can visualize rapid increase in application domains of QR Codes, mostly for smart cities where one needs to store bulk amount of data. Nowadays India is experiencing demonetization step taken by Prime Minister of the country and QR codes can play major role for this step. They are also helpful for cashless society as many vendors have registered themselves with different e-wallet companies like paytm, freecharge etc. These e-wallet companies have installed QR codes at cash counter of such vendors. Any time when a customer wants to pay his bills, he only needs to scan that particular QR code. Afterwards the QR code decoder application start working by taking necessary action like opening payment gateway etc. So, objective of this research study focuses on solving this issue by applying proposed methodology.
