FYP 2, WEEK 9 (8/5/2023 - 12/5/2023)

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.

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.
