- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ค. 2024
- Build a device that logs you into your PC using your own fingerprint! This video covers the entire process from scratch -- all the way from the conception of the idea to the final product installation and demo. The process is demonstrated on a Windows system, but it can be adapted for any device with login details.
Watch through the entire project including modelling and 3D printing, circuit design, PCB making, servo motor and gears, etching and integrating a capacitive touch sensor for activation. This practical guide is ideal for tech enthusiasts looking to enhance their skills with hands-on experience. Follow along to create a functional and innovative login device!

Thank you to all my new and returning viewers🙂This video took a lot of work, but I really went all out with it.
Everything you see and hear is produced by myself (yes, the music too!) so please do let me know what you all think.
Looking forward to hearing all your ideas and thoughts!
Hope you're all keeping well and maker-vibing :)
epic editing, and cool project🔥- Well done mate !💯
Thank you man! Cheers 😀
Love the video but please fix your audio, the left/right channel seems to be out of phase and it hurts to listen. Thanks!
Thank you for letting me know! I'm not sure how that's happened actually. I'll definitely look into it. Thanks 😀
Hmm, seems fine on my phone computer laptop and everything maybe it’s your device that’s an issue :/
the best video I've seen today, keep going👍
Thank you very much!
This is a really nice implementation, I'm glad we both went with the same login technique. Prepare for the comments to tell you it's very unsecure 😂
Haha thank you! Yeah it's not secure at all... I'm ready for the comments, I think...
Nice diy! If you don't wanna try making PCBs at home, try at PCBWay next time haaha! Wondering if any advanced PCBs/ assembled PCBs, 3DP/CNC'd parts may assisit for upcoming projects? Would love to support! (PCBWay zoey)
Really cool project, I just don’t see any point in the touch sensor… or the mechanism that then follows. It’s definitely cool, but to me there doesn’t seem to be any reason for me to touch a button, just in order to touch another one. I personally would have probably took the route of embedding the sensor into the table surface and make only the actual sensor visible… if I was as talented
Thank you so much for the feedback :) no you're absolutely right. What you're saying would've been a lot more practical and functional for sure. I guess I over engineered it a little lol. But thank you once again 😀
also you exposed your PIN! Change it after this!!!
Don't get me wrong, DIY is good...just there is some window plug-in USB dongle called Hello fingerprint, that can do the job more securely and it is not that expensive...
in case of misunderstanding, what I actually mean is that there should be some way to simulate how the Hello fingerprint works...and it would be a more secure way to unlock ur window than ur solution now...tho I don't think you are really going to use it
@VongHouCheng No you're absolutely right! There's definitely products out there that'll do a better job. I just love DIY lol :P but thank you for the feedback.
You’re quite intelligent for not having realised this is merely for entertainment purposes! 👏
wow, what software do you use for 3D modeling ?
Thank you :D I use a software called Rhinoceros, but if I could start over I'd probably go for something like Fusion 360.
Bro it would be more better to share code. Keep it up
Thank you for the comment! I'll put a link to the code in the description soon, please check back again. Thanks :)
this is hilariously unsafe, on the same level as writing your passwords on paper notes and "hiding" them in a drawer
Lol yeah. You can easily make it more secure. The hardware, electronics and DIY are the main focal points of the video.
Your Father will Now watch this video… and Hack into your Computer…. Hehe haha hooohoo… unsafe 👻
Watch and move on.. foul creature: foul art thy who cannot watch TH-cam without negativity! Begone! Begone! Delete comment! 🎉
epic video! Have subscribed and will come back when yr famous 👍
Thank you so much for the uplifting comment! I can't get anywhere without people like you watching my videos so we're all in it together :D
@@MakerVibe you're welcome 💟
