Abstract: : Efficient schedule management is a crucial aspect of any educational institution, ensuring that students and staff have seamless access to updated class information. Traditional paper-based timetables or static notice boards are often inflexible, prone to delays in updates, and require manual intervention, which may lead to confusion or miscommunication. This project introduces a Digital Timetable System powered by an Arduino microcontroller and a TFT display for real-time visualization of class schedules. The system integrates a web-based interface through which authorized staff members can conveniently update timetable entries in the central database. A Python program running with the system clock retrieves the current lecture details from the database and transmits them to the Arduino, which then displays the corresponding schedule on the TFT screen. This setup provides a dynamic, automated, and reliable approach to timetable management. The primary objective of this project is to enhance accessibility, accuracy, and efficiency in timetable dissemination. By automating the update process and eliminating the need for manual display changes, the system reduces human effort while ensuring that students always have access to the most current information. The solution is cost-effective, user-friendly, and adaptable to different institutional requirements, making it a practical alternative to traditional methods.
