Mifare Card Reader/Writer CR038 with Fingerprint Scanner SM630.

Projects General Guidance
1

Hello.

I'm currently trying to run a project using a Mifare card reader, a CR038 combining it with a Fingerprint Scanner, the SM630 which I'm trying to turn a card that is able to top-up, make purchase and also have a fingerprint security at the same time. It is going to be linked to a website database.

I looked all over for guides but there's none. All I see is card reader with buttons and LCD, and Fingerprint for attendance. Any ideas?

You have a vision:

I'm trying to turn a card that is able to top-up, make purchase and also have a fingerprint security at the same time. It is going to be linked to a website database.

Do you have a specifications document? Some requirements? (Something more than "Make it work"?)

Do you have links to the hardware? Have you test that each piece works independently?

HOW is "it" going to be linked to a web site? HOW is it going to be linked to a database?

You mean the spreadsheets?

The hardware that I currently have on hand is :-

  1. CT UNO - Cytron UNO - Arduino UNO Compatible
  2. UC00A USB to UART Converter - UC00A (FTDI) USB to UART Converter
  3. BBFuino - Breadboard Friendly (Arduino Compatible)
  4. Mifare CR038 Card Reader/Writer - Mifare Reader/Writer CR038
  5. SM630 Fingerprint Scanner - Fingerprint Reader Integrated SM630
  6. Mifare RFID Cards - RFID/NFC Module Kit (13.56MHz)

Some others are 16x4 LCD, Breadboard and jumper cables.

I'm currently testing each of it individually. And as for the connection to the website and database, i'll be using a Ethernet Shield which I have not get the hardware on hands with a MySQL Connector.
But for this part of the process I have yet to reach that far because merging both devices is difficult for me.
