Prototype electronic lock developed as part of an internship project, designed to secure a cabinet containing sensitive electronic equipment. The system uses an RFID reader (RC522) connected to an Arduino to authenticate a badge and trigger a physical locking mechanism via a servo motor. The enclosure and locking mechanism are designed to be 3D printed (PLA/PETG).
- Badge is presented to the RFID reader
- Arduino verifies the badge's unique identifier (UID)
- If authorized: unlock via servo motor + LED/buzzer confirmation
- If denied: LED/buzzer access-denied signal
