AVR/8051/PIC/ARM/Robotics based projects.

10. Making the electronic circuit :
The components of the circuit are connected as follows:
• Rx pin of R307 fingerprint scanner is connected to Tx pin
of ESP32 and Tx pin of scanner is connected to Rx pin of
ESP32.
• Vcc Pin of Scanner is connected to +5v pin of ESP32. •
RW of LCD is connected to D0 pin of ESP32, RS pin of
LCD is connected to D1 pin of ESP32. D7, D6, D5, D5 pins
of LCD is connected to D2, D3, D4, D5 respectively.
• Positive pin of Buzzer is connected to D6 pin of ESP32. •
Anode pin of RED LED is connected to D7 pin of ESP32. •
Anode pin of GREEN LED is connected to D8 pin of
ESP32. • Vcc and GND of all circuit is connected to
battery

11. WORKING OF THE CIRCUIT
In this project our aim is to leverage this IoT into the boring attendance system to make it smart and more
effective. Most conventional attendance systems available today is to store the information over cloud or
server and have to be connected to software via a computer to access the information.
• Here, we will build a biometric attendance system using ESP32 that scans for finger print and on successful
identification of the person it will log the information to a cloud platform like Google Drive by using the ESP32
WiFi module.
• This information can then be displayed in the google sheet of google drive making it available for the
required authorities to view and analysis information over the internet without having any direct physical
access to the hardware.
• The only requirement of this device is to provide WiFi for access internet for sending the data to the google
sheets

12. BENEFITS:
BENEFITS :
➢ Make easy to attendance
➢ Very accurate fingerprint reading & storing
➢ Saves timing of attendance
➢ There is not need to handle attendance book.
➢ Easy to store the data.
➢ User friendly.
➢ Can store up to 1000 fingerprints
➢ LCD display for username, date and time of the operation.

13. DRAWBACKS
➢ Needs skillful person for
troubleshooting.
➢ Due to continue working electrical bill
increse which can be decreased by using
solar panel to system
➢ Limited number of fingerprints are
stored
➢ As fingerprints are stored primarily in
EEPROM so that can create some
problems
➢ In mega-factory staff
➢ In banks.
➢ In school, college.
➢ This device is necessary where the
attendance is mandatory everyday, for
that it helps digitally by marking the
attendance and sending the data to the
cloud.
