Fingerprint Attendance System by Adib Bazli, powered by ESP8266

This Fingerprint Attendance System was used as School Project. It is using Arduino (or Arduino-like, eg ESP8266) and PHP as Backend. This project will use

This project is using

• ESP8266 based WEMOS D1 R2
• DY50 as Fingerprint Sensor.

You can buy them at local store or e-commerce such as AliExpress, you also can use Arduino as the board.

This project rely on network connection heavily, if you plan to buy Arduino, make sure you also buy a Network Module. This project use ESP8266 WiFi Module. You can use either or both of

WiFi Module, or
Ethernet Module

To run this project, you will need

• [Arduino Compiler](https://www.arduino.cc) with ESP8266 board library installed.
• [FPM](https://github.com/brianrho/FPM)
• CH340 USB-Serial Driver
• Apache Server with PHP 7.1
• MySQL

Extract src content into your www directory and run ad_39.sql to create the database.

If plan to run a test directly from source, there is several change that you need to made.

Please make sure that you've change your system host from your machine which is

"C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts" - for Windows

[server:ip]	iktihad-malaysia.com.my
[arduino:ip]	iktihad.com

Please be noted that your device should be on same network. Minor change, however can be made for the project to run over the internet.

There is an issue with the board pin, this project will use softwareserial, however the library is made for Arduino. This can be resolve by

Connect the Rx and Tx of the Fingerprint Sensor to the following Pin
Rx -> 3
Tx -> 4

Make sure the Rx and Tx value from the source code is set to

SoftwareSerial mySerial(4,5);

Make sure the compiler is

Compiler - ESP8266 Board -> Wemos D1 R2

To simulate it in real world environment, you will need a monitor with touchscreen capability as the GUI. PHP will serve as the backend and HTML as the frontend.
