The current trend for the hotel room entry method is still mostly based on the electronic key cards or the regular metal keys. However, these hotel room entry methods still bring inconvenience to the hotel customers. They encountered different kind of problems when the hotel keys are forgotten, lost or stolen. Furthermore, numerous existing Arduino based fingerprint door lock systems could only operate on only one door lock. It could not implement in the hotel with multiple doors where we need to constrict the customer to have access to their own hotel room only. Hence, this final year project is proposing a hotel fingerprint door lock system. The objectives of this final year project are (i) to assemble and program a prototype fingerprint door lock using Arduino, and (ii) to design a door access system that collect and store the door access data. The proposed system is Arduino based and it can operate on two door locks. In this proposed system, by using the fingerprint, the users could only have access to the hotel room that they are assigned to. Through this project, we would bring significant impact to the hotel industry. The hotel customers also would able to gain benefits from this fingerprint door access system as it will help them to address the problem encountered when the hotel keys are forgotten, lost or stolen. The result of this final year project is a prototype of fingerprint door access system that can be implemented in hotel.
