In this project a mobile application is developed to lock the door automatically when the hall is
filled to its maximum capacity, and a device is designed to unlock the door when password is provided
directly or through mobile application, and fitted in entry and exit door.

Passive Infrared sensors are kept on either side wall of the entrance. Entry and exit doors of the
hall are different in this project. When a person enters, the IR rays are cut and the counter gets
incremented by one. Arduino controller (UNO R3) is used in the control of door closure. IR Sensor detects
the entry of person and, sensor’s output is given as input to Arduino controller. Arduino controller
operates L293D DRIVER IC to switch on DC motor, which opens the door. This is also used in the
direction control of DC motor. When the person enters, the door opens, and after a time interval, the door
closes. The direction in which the door moves, is determined by the instruction from Arduino controller.
Using IR sensors, number of persons exiting the hall can also be counted. With the help of both counters,
a database is maintained in remote cloud using Esp8266 Arduino add-on and is linked to the mobile
application, to keep track of count of persons available inside the hall at any given time. When the hall is
filled to its maximum capacity i.e., the total count in database equals the maximum capacity of the hall,
door gets locked automatically. Using sensors and security lock/unlock device, the door can be opened,
only when a password is given either through Mobile App or keyed-in directly in the device fitted in the
doors. The cost estimation is Rs.8000.

This project can be implemented in halls like classroom, conference hall to ensure disturbance
free lecture. Hardware used in this project are Arduino board, sensors and security lock/unlock device.
Software used in this project are Arduino IDE and Android studio. Cost of this project is Rs.10,000/-
