Fingerprint-based Licensing for Driving
Prajeesha, B S Rakshith, Nidhi Nagabhushan, Tangirala Madhavi · 2021
A major cause of death in modern times has been due to road accidents. People who have never been tested for a driving licence and underaged drivers take up a majority role in this cause. In this paper, we aim to prevent such drivers from accessing the vehicle and in-turn reduce the number of irresponsible drivers on the road and hence the percentage of road accidents on a daily basis. The main objective of this project is to develop a fingerprint authentication mechanism as a prerequisite for vehicle ignition along with the driving license verification of the user. The results obtained are far more reliable with this double verification than a single verification due to the biometrics as well as the government issued license being involved.
