FINGERPRINT SENSOR

GT-511C3

GT-511C3

These is the sensor that we will used is the Fingerprint Scanner - TTL (GT-511C3). Fingerprints enrolled will each have their own id where it includes: the student's name and the student number. We have use the library: FPS_GT511C3.h for this that is found in this link: https://github.com/sparkfun/Fingerprint_Scanner-TTL

Arduino Uno

Arduino Uno

The microcontroller that we had used is the Arduino Uno R3. But...

Arduino Yun

Arduino Yun

..in this Appointment Device, we had also used Arduino Yun which is even better for it has a built-in wifi hence it doesn't need the Wifly anymore to access the website.

Displaying messages

Displaying messages

We had also used an LCD that will display messages indicating whether the professor is inside his/her office and also an interface for the student in setting an appointment. There is already a built-in library for LCD in the Arduino program.

The Board Layout

The Board Layout

This is the breadboard view of the circuit using fritzing. Note that there two mini push buttons that were used as a part of the user interface. (eg. Enroll or Verify/ Advise or Consult)

The first prototype

The first prototype

The information presented here came from the early drafts and as such will only focus on the process of development.
