Unlocking Electronic Lock using Biometrics

Abstract

Being an engineering student, it often happens students have to carry a lot of things to college: mini drafter, project models, football, laptop et cetera. There is always a chance of breaking, losing these things while travelling to and from college. Students forget their assignments and submissions on their due dates. So out of curiosity we began wondering about possibility of having lockers in our college. How better it would be for students! All the unwanted stuff for the lecture can be stuffed inside the lockers till the time required. So this project aims at implementing a way to control electronic lock in the locker to unlock when the user has his identity identified by using biometrics. Biometrics is a growing research and development field. By using biometrics for user identity verification in our project we are encouraging ourselves to explore the field of biometrics which has tremendous potential in the near-future .
