Project Description
Overview
The software is an intelligent classroom seating and student management system designed to digitally organise classroom seating arrangements, automate seat rotation, and provide instant access to student information through an interactive classroom layout.
The platform allows administrators, teachers, or faculty coordinators to create multiple classes/courses, assign students to seats, automatically rotate seating positions weekly, and access detailed student profiles simply by clicking on a seat or student.
The system is designed to improve classroom management, fairness in seating allocation, attendance tracking, and student monitoring while providing a clean and visual interface.
Core Objectives
Digitise classroom seating arrangements
Automate weekly seat rotation
Provide quick student profile access
Manage multiple classes and courses centrally
Reduce manual classroom administration
Improve organisation and monitoring
Main Features
1. Multi-Class & Multi-Course Management
The software should support unlimited:
Courses
Classes
Sections
Batches
Labs
Training groups
Example:
MBA Semester 1
MBA Semester 2
Section A
Section B
Data Analytics Lab
Finance Elective
Each class should have:
Class name
Course name
Faculty assigned
Classroom number
Seating capacity
Timetable details
Student list
2. Interactive Seating Arrangement System
The core interface should visually represent the classroom.
Features
Grid-based classroom layout
Drag-and-drop seat arrangement
Custom classroom shapes/layouts
Benches, rows, columns support
Teacher desk placement
Empty seat support
Seat numbering system
Each seat acts as an interactive element.
Example:

3. Student-to-Seat Mapping
Every seat will be permanently linked to a student for the current rotation cycle.
Admins or teachers can:
Assign students manually
Auto-assign randomly
Shuffle seating
Lock certain seats
Reserve seats
4. Automatic Weekly Seat Rotation
One of the major intelligent features.
Rotation Logic

Monthly
Manual trigger
Example:
Week 1:
Seat
Student

Priya
A3
Aman
Week 2:
Seat
Student
A1
Aman
A2
Rahul
A3
Priya
