PROGRESS UPDATE OF FINAL YEAR PROJECT

Furthermore, I extensively studied the ESP32 pinout and successfully embarked on a simple LED project. Prior to that, I ensured that the ESP32 boards were properly set up in the Arduino software's board manager. Additionally, I explored the functionality of the Finger Print Sensor (AS608) that will play a vital role in my project. The fingerprint sensor enables the scanning of fingerprints, with the processed data being transmitted to a microcontroller via a serial connection. This module is equipped to store a maximum of 250 unique fingerprints and can perform authentication by comparing scanned fingerprints with the stored data. The AS608 fingerprint sensor boasts the following key features: Fingerprint Storage: Capable of storing up to 250 unique fingerprints. High Accuracy: Provides reliable and accurate fingerprint matching. Fast Identification: Rapidly processes and matches fingerprints for quick authentication. Secure Communication: Utilizes a serial connection to securely t

In the third week of my project, I dedicated time to thoroughly studying the ESP32 microcontroller and came across a wealth of fascinating information. During my research, I delved deeper into the subject and discovered various modules that utilize the ESP32 chip. Some notable modules include the 12-E NodeMCU Kit, the WeMos D1 Mini, and the ESP-01. To provide a comprehensive overview, here is a list of specifications commonly found in ESP32 boards: Microcontroller: ESP32 (dual-core, 32-bit) Processor: Xtensa LX6 (up to 240 MHz) Wi-Fi: 802.11 b/g/n Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.2, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) RAM: Typically ranging from 520KB to 4MB (internal) Flash Memory: Varies between 4MB to 16MB (internal) GPIO Pins: Multiple pins for digital input/output, analog input, PWM, SPI, I2C, etc. ADC: 12-bit ADC (analog-to-digital converter) DAC: 8-bit DAC (digital-to-analog converter) Voltage Range: 2.2V to 3.6V Operating Voltage: 3.3V Operating Temperature: -40°C to 125°C Additional Features: Ca

  In week 2, I attended workshop 1, "General Briefing of FYP". The email's attendance is shown below: Figure 1 The circuit diagram of the system shows the connections of each wiring and pin connection used by the microcontroller ESP32. Thumbprint scanners capture fingerprint data for authentication purposes, while servo motors are responsible for physical movement based on input signals from the ESP32. The LCD offers visual feedback and information to the user. The keypad lets the user enter commands and engage with the ATM apparatus. Subsequently, all components are also interconnected to the power supply's common ground (GND). Diagram 1

  Title: Simplifying Open Title Registration for FYP 1 Degree and Diploma at SL, Followed by Changing Title for FYP 2 Introduction: As students pursuing higher education, one of the crucial steps we encounter during our academic journey is the registration of our Final Year Projects (FYP). These projects hold significant weight in our degrees and diplomas, serving as a culmination of our learning and a testament to our expertise. In this blog post, we will explore the process of open title registration for FYP 1 at SL, followed by the subsequent changing of the title for FYP 2. By simplifying this important procedure, we aim to help students navigate through these stages smoothly and make the most out of their project experiences. Open Title Registration for FYP 1: Understand the Guidelines: Before beginning the open title registration process at SL, familiarize yourself with the guidelines provided by your respective department or faculty. These guidelines typically outline the requir
