Abstract: Garage automation and security have been a favoured concern with technological advancement. In this paper, developed garage access security and automation system are proposed with the affiliated control of the biometric fingerprint recognition and password verification system. Here, fingerprint recognition is restricted to the registered vehicle owners of the garage, while everyone is permitted to access through a password verification system. The affiliation of the dual-sensing system is intended to maintain robust security and to retain the record of any driver's access without the vehicle owners. Moreover, the system is enriched with a subtle design of the access door and its operation mechanism. Power screw-driven door operation is utilised to convert the rotating motion of the motor to linear motion and slide the door open or close. The requisite motor torque, revolution per minute, and power requirement for door control by the screw operation are also calculated and verified.
