Purpose
A Mapua University thesis to build a fingerprint access system where a hardware scanner communicates with an Android application over Wi-Fi using socket communication, enabling wireless authentication without a physical connection between scanner and phone.
Description
An Arduino-driven fingerprint scanner captures and matches prints, then transmits access data over Wi-Fi through raw TCP sockets. On the mobile side, an Android application built in Unity with C# opens a socket client to receive scanner events in real time, supporting authentication and access-control workflows. The project includes dedicated test builds for the fingerprint module and for Wi-Fi communication in both station and access-point modes, validating each link in the chain.
