}

Once the upload is complete, open the Serial Monitor in the Arduino IDE. Set the baud rate to “9600” in the Serial Monitor.

Fingerprint Enrollment

In the Serial Monitor, you will see the prompt “Enroll Fingerprint”. Follow the instructions displayed in the Serial Monitor:

  • Set the Finger Print ID number according to the code.
  • Place an enrolled finger on the sensor.
  • Place the finger again on the sensor for confirmation.
Fingerprint Enrolled

After successfully enrolling the fingerprint, you can proceed to the final code.

By following these steps, you will be able to enroll fingerprints and test for a match using the R307 Fingerprint Sensor with Arduino.

Testing & Demo: Biometric Door Lock

To test and demonstrate the Biometric Fingerprint Door Lock project follow the steps:

  • Set up the hardware and connect the Fingerprint Sensor and Arduino as shown in the circuit diagram.
  • Copy the provided code to the Arduino IDE and install the necessary libraries.
  • Upload the code to the Arduino board and open the Serial Monitor (baud rate: 9600).
  • If the Fingerprint Sensor is connected successfully, the LCD will display “Fingerprint Sensor Connected.
  • Place your finger on the sensor to start the scan. The LCD and Serial Monitor display real-time feedback.
  • If the fingerprint is recognized, the LCD shows “Door Unlocked” and triggers the relay for 5 seconds.
