  • Abstract:
  • This work signifies a Vehicle access control is a critical aspect of security in shared vehicle services, rental systems, and restricted areas. Traditional methods like manual verification, RFID cards, and biometric systems lack flexibility and real-time monitoring. To address these challenges, this project introduces a Smart QR Vehicle Access System with User-Defined Time Selection and ID Verification. Registered users can scan a QR code displayed on the vehicle’s screen, select their usage time, and request approval from the owner. The owner receives a real-time notification and can accept or deny the request. If the time expires, the user must reselect the duration and send a new request. This system enhances security, prevents unauthorized access, and ensures full control over vehicle usage. Various vehicle access systems exist, including RFID-based access, biometric authentication, and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR). RFID systems are prone to cloning, while biometric authentication introduces delays and privacy concerns. ANPR relies on cameras but can be affected by poor lighting and dirty plates. QR-based authentication is a cost-effective, scalable, and reliable alternative. However, existing QR-based systems lack real-time authorization and time selection features. This project enhances QR-based access by integrating user-defined time selection and owner approval, ensuring secure and flexible vehicle access control. The main challenge in vehicle access management is balancing security and user convenience. This project employs a touchscreen display, QR scanner, and microcontroller unit (Raspberry Pi or Arduino) for authentication. Users select their usage time, scan a QR code, and send an access request via a cloud-based system (Firebase). The software stack includes Python for backend processing and OpenCV for QR scanning. If the approved time expires, the user must request an extension. By integrating real-time notifications and secure access control, this system provides a scalable, user-friendly, and efficient vehicle access solution, reducing reliance on manual intervention and preventing unauthorized access.
