Coin-Based Solar Charging Station with Security Features Using Optical Fingerprint Scanner and Solenoid Lock Chamber Box

Vol.3, No.1A

Abstract

The Coin-Based Solar Charging Station with Security features uses an optical fingerprint scanner and solenoid lock chamber box to convert clean solar energy to electricity. Solar energy is totally free and environmentally safe. Charging stations are attractive solutions to provide easy access to people on the road. Security and the device's safety are the main issues of most people utilizing the charging station. The prototype design uses an optical fingerprint scanner as the security feature to avoid unexpected loss of a device inside the chamber box while charging. 

This study is focused on conserving energy using solar panels. Converting it into energy that can be used with security features. Using an optical fingerprint scanner with a solenoid lock will assure the device's safety and avoid unexpected happenings such as theft. Battery protectors will ensure the damage from discharging, and battery drainage is also one of the benefits of this project. The researchers added an optical fingerprint scanner for security that can identify the device's owner. When the owner's fingerprint has been identified, the solenoid that keeps the user's device safe in a chamber box will automatically open. The researchers also installed an anti-theft shockwave sensor that will alarm whenever it receives enough force—adding an inverter that connects to the battery to supply a charger adapter that will provide fast charging and has 65 Watts. The researchers used the Descriptive Research Method. The proponents of this study also implemented the Engineering Methodology.
