As shown in the circuit RGB LED light, R305 fingerprint sensor, and switches are connected to a raspberry pi. RGB LED light is used for various state indications of the system such as PLAY/STOP/PAUSE, ON/OFF, and, Heartbeat. Also, tactile switches are used. The first switch is used for the ON/OFF of the product. The middle switch is used for playing and pausing of song light. For instance, if a person wants to pause the song/light due to some interruptions then the person can just press the middle switch. The last switch is used as a stop switch which will stop and clear the playlist. The R305 fingerprint sensor is used to scan user's fingerprints in order to list and play their particular playlist.

The future scope of our project can be observed that in the long run, the updates for this device will include more accessibility for the user in terms of remote control access such as smartphone applications to use the smartphones fingerprint sensor to be able to switch things with just one touch, for instance, connect a TV via Bluetooth connectivity, however different fingerprint data will be allocated to a specific user so that one will be able to turn on TV with one fingerprint and put on the relaxing ambiance with the other one from the application itself.
We made our open-source learning tool in such a way that it can reach as many people as possible, and we have focused on our online presence. The project's development has been updated to the users from the start. We outreached through twitter, instagram, and youtube. Thanks to this social media outreach, we were able to reach out to the spectators.
