 UPDATE OF MY PROJECT/REPORT:

   I drafted the flowchart of this “Biometric ATM Machine with Smart Security System”. The flowchart is the details of the process and flows throughout the system in collecting the data collection, input, and output process. The function of the flowchart is to be a guide in understanding the project and it will be easy to troubleshoot the project later on. Based on the flowchart, to authenticate a bank account, user must provide their account number or phone number. If the account is valid, user must place their finger on a fingerprint scanner to confirm the owner authentication.

The ESP32 will connect to MySQL to define whether it is an emergency fingerprint or a fingerprint for withdrawal. If a fingerprint provided is for withdrawal, the user will go directly to the display to enter the withdrawal amount. If emergency fingerprints are used, Blynk will be notified the police station and the user will then brought to a display for enter amount of money for withdraw. The servo motor will operates accordingly once the machine has dispensed the money.

Conclusion : After the drafting of flowchart have been made, I'm planning to start writing my thesis fyp1 for chapter 1.

This week, I encountered an issue with the LCD display in my project. Upon initial testing, as shown in Figure 1, the LCD was unable to display any content. After conducting a thorough troubleshooting process, I discovered that the problem stemmed from the weak internet connection between the ESP32 and the cloud. To resolve this, I decided to switch to a different Wi-Fi connection with a stronger signal. The positive outcome of this adjustment can be seen in Figure 2, where the LCD successfully displays the desired information. Figure 1 Figure 2

After programming and testing the website, it was time to make the casing for the project. I bought a case from Mr DIY, a popular hardware store.  I sized the case to fit the LCD panel, keypad, fingerprint scanner, and servo motor. I had to be accurate so each component fit with the casing. I wanted people to easily access all functions. I slowly cut the case with following the measurement of my components. The detail was essential throughout. I needed to ensure the LCD are clear to seeing, the keypad had enough area for comfortable use, the fingerprint scanner was conveniently positioned for authentication, and the servo motor had enough room to function without obstructions.  I wanted the hardware and software to work together. The improved of the casing will protect internal components and looked good to users. It has to be ergonomic, functional, and attractive.  All the processes can be seen below.
