Realization of biometric based elevator controller using FPGA

Abstract

The elevator have become an essential part of every skyscraper with high number of malls, hotels, complexes and skyscrapers. It is a system which is used for transferring individuals to particular floor inside any multi storey building. To secure entrance of lab, research centres and hospitals, biometric access is implemented in elevators. The doors of elevator would open only if a person’s biometric attributes are identified by facial, fingerprint or eyes. Biometrics has been gaining great importance in this technical world because it is based on an individual’s attributes. Vein fingerprints based controller elevator by using FPGA has been proposed in this work. For this, Verilog HDL and Xilinx ISE tools are used for simulating and coding the controller.
