This document describes a finger print based security access control system. It uses a finger print scanner module interfaced with a microcontroller to verify authorized users and unlock an electric lock for entry. The finger print scanner can store up to 100 user fingerprints and operate in either a master mode to register prints or a user mode to verify prints against the stored images. When an authorized user scans their finger, the microcontroller will unlock the door, but unauthorized prints will not unlock the door. The system uses a 5V 500mA regulated power supply.
