1. INTRODUCTION
In recent days life technology has been developed and people are interested to do everything in shortcut. The
growing technology introduces many advances in day to day life. It reduces the man power, time consumption and
mainly avoids bribes between citizens and bureaucrats. Now-a-days in our country most of the existing RTO
offices didn’t have systematic driving license providing system. In order to overcome these problems an
authenticating driving license system is proposed and provided to RTOs.
By making use of finger print reader we can maintain authenticated driving license system. And the fingerprints
are the unique and they cannot change over time Fingerprint verification is an important biometric technique for
personal identification. In this system, we describe the design and implementation of a prototype automatic
identity authentication system that uses fingerprints to authenticate the identity of an individual. We have
developed an improved minutiae-extraction algorithm that is faster and more accurate than our earlier algorithm.
An alignment-based minutiae-matching algorithm has been proposed.
2. LITERATURE SURVEY
In this project it gives the brief explanation about the literature survey of the project. Thereby it describes about the
currently existing system in General method of license management is done manually. An inspector will monitor
the candidate for proper driving. [1] Komal A. et al (April 2015) established to deals with Driving license test
automation using VB by customizing 8051 controller based embedded system and VB based virtual instrument.
The controller module senses the motion of the test vehicle on the test track referred to as zero rpm measurement.
In this system, in addition to detect interruption along the edges, we must also check if the vehicle moves correctly
in the specified path. For detection of the correct path, we again use the same setup consisting of metal
strips(pressure switch).The pairs of metal strips and they are placed in positions . The test taker must move to the A B S T R A C T
This project is about the development in the automation of driving license test system in our country without any bribes given to the officers. Normally, in a license tests a candidate who has applied for license test have to drive over a closed loop path like the number (8) in front of the testing authorities. The candidate has to drive over the path without supporting over the land surface and if he/she fails to do he/she will be disqualified and they must be re-appear again. In this, the authorities have to watch him/her manually. The project has a developed system to monitor the candidate whether he/she is eligible for getting license by using a load cell. The load cell gives the variance of its output when there is an sudden pressure change over the surface. Thus, we can detect the candidate who keeps his/her foot in the land surface by differential output from the load cell. Then, it was proceeded by the micro-controller and the output can be obtained. While a person entering for license test he was authenticated by finger print sensor so that he/she will automatically rejected or selected by the system. All the parameters such as the round test and other test have been done and the result is viewed by remotely monitor via Internet of Things.
following path. That is the test taker must start at start position and end the test at stop position. Here the metal
strip is kept horizontally across each path. When the vehicle moves through the respective path, the metal strip is
not conducting and this is done in a sequential manner that is from path start to stop end. On successful
completion of the test, „ pass‟ report will be generated or else a “fail” report. [4] Rashmi Konapanavar, et al (July
2017) discovered a system of Control unit consist of Fingerprint sensor for authentication of the candidate and IR
sensors to monitor the start and end of the test.
The IR sensors here are placed on the track. Vehicle monitoring unit is fitted on the vehicle, it consist of the IR
proximity sensors, which will check that vehicle is moving in the specified track. At the time of the test the
candidate is authenticated using fingerprint. After the authentication is successful the candidate can proceed for
test. An IR sensor is used to check the vehicle is started to move or not, as the vehicle moves from its initial
position the test begins. The proximity IR sensors are placed on the both sides of the vehicle to check that vehicle
is moving in specified path. When the vehicle moves out of the specified track a pulse is generated and is recorded
by Arduino. When vehicle completes the track and comes to end line, the test ends. After the test ends the Arduino
on the vehicle sends data to another Arduino which is connected to the computer using the Zigbee transmitter and
receiver pair. This data is compared with predefined parameters. And based on the comparison the candidate is
issued license or asked to retake the test in near future.
[2] D.Sarath kumar, et al (April 2016) discovered for Automatic two wheeler driving license system by using lab
view. The Operation of this system First the person enter into the license test means put the finger print in the
finger print sensor. At first time the candidate details are enter in the lab view manually. Then the person entering
into the test location. First the PIR sensors sensing the candidate entry. It gives the signal to the Lab view. That the
time the candidate entry will be noted in the Lab view. Then the candidate should wear the shoes. The limit switch
is fixed in the shoes for the purpose of identify the candidate wear the shoe (or) not. Proximity sensor is used to
identify the candidate legs placed in the vehicle (or) ground. After completing the test the signal is send to the
receiver through the transmitter. The output can be viewed in the lab view. If the same candidate appears the
license test for next time, that person put the finger print. The details will be automatically generated. The same
candidate appears for the license test, more than three times means, license will be cancelled. That will be
automatically indicated by lab view.
3. EXISTING SYSTEM DRAWBACKS
Time consuming
Only few people can be tested in a period of time
There are many sensors used in existing system. So, there may be a chance of signal interruption. Complex system design.
Dark sensor may give incorrect readings
4. PROPOSED SYSTEM
The developed system of the license automation shows that the proposed work with the enrollment of the persons
details while the system starts. An fingerprint sensor is set to the atmel8 controller board where the persons
identity matched and the authentication is displayed in the LCD display. An LCD display of 16×2 enables the
authentication of the person which recognizes the person identity and allow the persons to start the license test.
The test have been done in a closed loop (8) where the weighing load cell is placed under in it. Load cell calculate
the weight of the person and the vehicle in the starting point of the closed loop. The load cell is given an
approximate value of 560grams while the test starts with an starting value greater than 570 grams so that the
tanchent weight will compared and process to the result. Then the person is allowed to the loop and he/she has to
complete the loop without any external force applied to the ground i.e., they should not step down their leg on the
ground if so the tanchent weight in a sudden while applied in the particular place of the ground will be detected by
the weighing load cell and it has been matched to the microcontroller and set to the fail statement in the LCD
display.
The person is set to complete the loop of two times which is monitored by the proximity and IR sensors. Some of
them will be driving in slow speed so that, an session timing have been provided to person. If they fail to do it on
time the condition is to fail. The persons details of whether they passed or failed is up loaded in the local server or
it can be followed to display in the mobile phones with the help of the ESP- Wi-Fi shield which enables to display
the result in any accessing device by using the host IP address. At last the final result with the persons profile will
be displayed to them while in the local server
5.BLOCK DIAGRAM
A transformer of 12V which convert the 230V to 12V DC line. Here a 12-0-12 step down transformer is used
which converts the 230 v ac o 12 v ac. Followed by a rectifier circuit made of two diodes IN4007. Then a capacitor
is added parallely for filtering purpose. A voltage regulator 7805 is used which converts/regulates the 12 v dc to 5
v and this is used by the microcontroller. The microcontroller Atmega238 acts as the central control unit and
which is programmed in such a way that upon data receiving from the sensors. Where the action has to be taken at
the output side. The output is displayed in the LCD and an sounding alarm where the data is transmitting through
Wi-Fi. Control unit consist of Fingerprint sensor for authentication of the candidate and IR Proximity sensor
detect the path covering by the driver. The IR Proximity sensors are placed on the both sides of the track (8) loop.
The weighing load cell is used for measured the weight. The ESP8266 is a Wi-Fi shield which connects to the
server/ internet.
The load cell measure the transient weight and IR proximity sensor sense the path coverage .When vehicle
completes the track and comes to end line, and candidate has to drive over the path without supporting over the
land surface till the test ends and the result certain to “pass”. If so the candidate touches land surface an sudden
pressure change over the surface and it gives the variance of its output . Thus, we can ensure that the candidate
who keeps his/her foot in the land surface by differential output from the load cell .When vehicle not completes the
track and comes to end line, the test end result is fail. Then, it was proceeded by the micro-controller and the
output can be obtained. While a person entering for license test he was authenticated by finger print sensor so that
he/she will automatically rejected or selected by the system. All the parameters such as the round test and other
test have been done and the result is viewed by remotely monitor via Internet of Things.
6. RESULT AND DISCUSSION
This project is implemented for automatic driving license system using of weighing load cell in two wheelers. This
system is proposed for monitoring the candidate whether he/she is eligible for getting license by an automation
process. On the other hand, IoT is a promising solution to communicate between devices which reduces the
manpower and avoid of corruptions.
The programming system of Atmega328 microcontroller (Aurdino) is used with the language of C .Then, the
programming section is verified, executed and Debugged in it successfully.

The load cell calculate the candidate weight and vehicle weight before entering the test. After starting the test the
Load cell measure the transient weight and IR Proximity sensor senses the closed loop (8) path track. While the
Transient weight changes and sensor results to fail and is displayed fail. If it is successfully completed within the
closed loop without supporting land surface the test result will be pass. These obtained data are transmitted through
wifi shield which is used to updated on the server. IOT technology used to view the result and candidate profile
will be easily viewed on mobile phones or PC in the given IP address.

7. CONCLUSION
The developed system for watching the candidate whether he/she is eligible for getting license by using a load cell.
The system works successfully as expected. On the other hand, IoT is a promising solution to communicate
between devices or between the devices and not only an user in local area but also in the wider area that has
network coverage. In this system, the application of sensors and IoT are implied and the results are good.
ADVANTAGES OF THE SYSTEM Autonomous
Less implementation cost and maintenance Time wastage will be avoided.
There is no chance for any illegal activity like bribe. It will reduce man power.
Only well-known driving person can get license.
FUTURE WORK
From this paper, we conclude that finger vein is a secure biometric authentication and will be used for
security purposes.
The system will also alert the user about the validity period of the license.
We can use the cameras instead of using sensors then it will work more effectively.
