Abstract : Embedded sensors and wireless networks have experienced substantial advancements in their design use throughout recent years. Advanced sensors with wireless connectivity foster new application systems that improve individuals' daily functions and independence and enhance their life quality. A detailed study about Wi-Fi-based monitoring systems for smart conference management appears in this article to improve visitor experience while enhancing event operation efficiency and providing exhibitors and organizers with data possibilities. The solution uses current Wi-Fi infrastructure to enable immediate monitoring of visitors as they move through the event space without asking them for any active involvement. The information collection enables strategic trade show sectioning as well as resource distribution decisions while enabling stands and crowd control measures and exhibitor-specific feedback that leads to better market engagement and operational performance. The research investigates essential privacy and ethical aspects by concentrating on anonymous data handling and clear visibility and adherence to privacy rules. Events monitoring through Wi-Fi systems proves to be an advantageous solution for modern event management which delivers benefits to exhibitors together with attendees and organizers.

Keywords : Wi-Fi-Based Monitoring, Smart Conference Management, Visitor Experience, Privacy and Ethics, Event Operation Efficiency.
