IMPLEMENTATION OF A BIMODAL BIOMETRIC ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM FOR DATA CENTER

The use of biometrics has become one of the only sure ways to provide secure access control to rooms where vital asset are stored, such as data centers where valuable information are stored. This paper aim at designing and implementing a bimodal biometric access control system for data center using fingerprint and Iris trait of the same person, it is called bimodal biometric system. The system was implemented by integrating hardware components such as PIC18F452 microcontroller, fingerprint and iris sensors and so no with the software programs as such C language and MYSQL interface. On testing, it is found to improve the security and reliability in the access control systems management of the data center.
