Presentation Day

Image
Presentation Day! (Week 5) This is the final day of the project and the day of presentation to assessors. This Week's Activities This is the group's finished poster.   Throughout the day we showcased our project via our poster and a demonstration of the various functions of the system. While there were minor hiccups during the demonstration, the system mostly worked as intended and is what we would deem a successful demo. Given more time to work on the project we could have ironed out these problems to create a further refined system. We also would have liked to develop a proper housing for the circuit to give it the appearance more reflective of a real product.

Week 4: Finishing Assembly

Week 4: This is the final week of actual project work before presentation in week 5. The work has been completed on both the software and hardware side of the arduino and its component connections, so we are finalising the work on the poster. This Week's Activities The inputs for the arduino have been tested extensively to determine any cases that errors might occur. During testing it was found that occasionally, the fingerprint sensor misdetects the input finger as wrong despite it being correct. This happens rarely, but it is still an issue to be considered.
