This is an easy arduino uno project with code for beginners, it is a keypad controlled safe with cd display simulated online.
Project description:
This project implements a secure, servo-controlled safe with a 4x4 keypad for input and an LCD (16x2) display for user feedback. The safe is locked and unlocked based on a predefined 4-digit code (1234 by default). The servo motor controls the locking mechanism, while the keypad lets users enter the code to unlock the safe. Feedback messages such as "Access Denied" or "Safe Unlocked" are displayed on the LCD to enhance the user experience.
The project is simulated on Wokwi.com, a powerful platform for simulating Arduino projects. A JSON file is provided to view the complete schematic of the components and connections.
Materials Required:
- Arduino Uno (or compatible board)
- 16x2 LCD Display with 4-bit interface
- 4x4 Keypad
- Servo Motor (e.g., SG90)
- Resistors (for pull-up configurations, if needed)
- Connecting Wires
- Breadboard
- Power Supply (or USB connection to the Arduino)
Features:
- Secure Access: The safe unlocks only when the correct 4-digit code is entered.
- LCD Display: Provides real-time feedback for user interactions (e.g., "Enter Code," "Access Denied").
- Auto-locking: After being unlocked for 3 seconds, the safe automatically locks.
- Customizable Code: The default code can be changed in the Arduino sketch.
- Simulation Ready: Designed for Wokwi, with a JSON file for schematic representation.
Additional Notes:
- JSON File: Use the provided JSON file in Wokwi to visualize the project connections and simulate the safe’s functionality.
- Expansion: This setup can be expanded by adding features like an EEPROM to save the code or integrating a buzzer for failed attempts.
