SO, here we are graduation time and we need to get our FYP complete just in time..
well, here's my idea i'd like to use fingerprint technology to give access to a car instead having the need to use a key.
the layout of the system would consist of;
LCD display/touch screen - used to program the fingerprint sensor; scan a new fingerprint, delete an old fingerprint, add another fingerprint to memory. so the the screen will have these options and you just touch it to choose it.
Fingerprint sensor - will be used to scan, or test the fingerprint.
now, what i'm currently trying to figure out is which microprocessor to use...
should i use a PIC but would it have enough RAM/ROM for the process of storing the fingerprint/s aswell as the intializations, aswell as the lcd and touch screen set up..
or should i use ARM, now i havent learned much ARM in school so alot of outside research would be needed for that. Also the fingerprint sensor would be connect via SPI, and i'm not 100% sure how i will go about connecting the LCD display/touch screen..maybe USB...
any suggestions would be appreciated,
so, this is the LCD display i was thinking of getting...any one that may have worked with this.. can i get some input?
