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

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.
