For an internet company that needs attendance, if you do not have the technical content of the "punch" way out, I am embarrassed to admit that the company still needs attendance.

Recently, a foreign software development company Panic developed a ibeacon-based sign-in software Punchclock (English means the attendance recorder). Panic is a small team and does not need to develop a punch-card software, but because of the "I can do" culture of the engineers, they have developed a model.

Punchclock and before we introduced a class check-in application behere some similar. Using geo-fencing technology, ibeacon tracking technology, when employees arrive at the workplace, the program automatically signed in. If you like, you can set the check-in, sign back to remind, so skip class, leave early to escape the boss's "discernment." Punchclock also allows members to send a push message to all the people who have signed in, and the next time you go to the bathroom and forget to bring the paper, you don't have to call 10086 for help.

The prototype of this software is based on IP address sign-in, but it is too unstable. Apple IOS7 announced, added ibeacon function, let panic see "hope". IOS8 allows users to see location-based applications on the screen of the lock screen, and Punchclock is more convenient to use. Panic has been debugged and has now optimized power consumption.

Punchclock software code is open source, if you are interested, you can go to GitHub download the editor, it should still be very interesting.

It is not realistic to expect Punchclock to be tied to the staff. Punchclock This application is based on the logic of mobile phone positioning, as long as the phone has been placed in the office, Punchclock also take you have no way. However, this application still has a lot of good uses, such as the group travel check-in, locked in the bathroom when radio for help.
