Creating a Secure Door Lock Mechanism with Django and Arduino

Welcome to my Smart Door Lock System project! In this video, I'll guide you through the creation of a secure and automated door locking mechanism using an Arduino, a servo motor, and a Django web application. This project showcases how to integrate hardware with software to create a practical and innovative solution for home security.
Project Overview:
Objective:
The goal of this project is to build a smart door lock system that allows authenticated users to open and close a door via a web interface. The system uses an Arduino connected to a servo motor, which physically controls the door lock mechanism.
Hardware Components:
Arduino Uno
Servo Motor (connected to pin 9 on Arduino)
Serial Communication (via USB)
Software Components:
Django Web Framework
Python
Serial Communication Library (pySerial)
Features:
User Authentication: Secure login system using Django's authentication framework.
Remote Control: Open and close the door through a web interface.
Real-time Feedback: The Arduino sends feedback to confirm the actions performed.
How It Works:
When a user logs in via the Django web application, the system authenticates the credentials.
Upon successful login, a command is sent to the Arduino to open the door by rotating the servo motor.
The door remains open until the user logs out, at which point a command is sent to close the door.
Code Highlights:
Django View Functions: Handle user login and logout, sending commands to the Arduino.
Arduino Sketch: Listens for serial commands to control the servo motor, opening or closing the door based on the input.
