THE DRIVING LICENSE AUTHORIZED BASED ON IOT

Abstract

Driving without a valid driver’s license is considered illegal and causes endangers the safety of people, as well as vehicles. Necessary measures should therefore be taken to ensure that vehicles are operated and driven only by those with the appropriate licences. This paper proposes an authentication framework to operate the vehicles. It uses biometric devices together with the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, where the system verifies the validity of the driver’s license before allowing the vehicle to operate, guarantee that the only authorized person can control it. Other than simply detecting drivers’ presence, the system provides a practical solution to ensure that drivers comply with the requirements to obtain a valid driver’s license through regulations that focus on the nature of effective biometric authentication tackling the issue of unlicensed driving by integrating internet-related technologies. This approach can go a long way in reducing accidents and improving overall vehicle safety. The proposed system used Raspberry Pi, Firebase, and program in C# language for the matching fingerprint authentication process. The main results show that the average time for each verification process is 6 seconds, indicating constant up time. In addition, the system has a success rate of 65% (13 out of 20 attempts) for authentic fingerprints
