Electronic Lock Using Real Time Signature Recognition System

The Electronic Lock Using Real Time Signature Recognition System is a process of verifying the writer's identity by using signature recognition as a key to the electronic lock. This project highlights the development of signature recognition using visual basic to recognize the input signature. This system can be used as a security system such as verification for assessing entry application and password substitutions. Signature verification technology requires primarily a digitizing tablet and a special pen connected to the Universal Serial Bus Port (USB port) of a computer. In this project, there are divided into two parts. In the first part, it is more focus on Real Time Signature Recognition where this technique is far sophisticated than a simple analysis of a finished signature. An individual can sign on the digitizing tablet using the special pen regardless of his signature size and position. The signature is characterized as pen strokes consisting x-y coordinates and the data will be stored in the signature database in the form of a txt file. These characteristics uniquely identify a person and cannot be mimicked or stolen. In this part, the method of Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to focuses in verifying the signature. For the second part, electronic key will be functioning when it receives the correct signature. DAQ card (Multifunction USB Module) will connect the program from the computer to the relay in Electronic Key circuit. Once the signature is recognized and valid the door automatically opens.
