The problem Our project name is Easy Yatra. solves

According to the latest data from SITA, a leading airline technology provider, the global airline industry mishandled 4.64 bags per thousand passengers in 2019. This means that approximately 24.8 million bags were mishandled that year.

The most common reasons for lost or delayed bags include:
Transfer mishandling
Failure to load
Tagging
Security issues

Ticket checking and seat allotment are important processes at airports, as they help ensure that passengers are seated correctly and that flights depart on time. However, delays can occur if these processes are not handled efficiently. Some common problems that can lead to delays include:
Understaffing
Technical issues
Human error
High passenger volume

Our idea helps in solving the delay that occurs between the formalities of a regular flight checkup with ease of access and a practically 0-second wait time with a one-touch scan system. Moreover, our RFID and GPS sensor-enabled luggage helps to locate and monitor the location of your luggage making sure it doesn't get lost.

Challenges we ran into

Technical difficulties: One of the primary challenges that we encountered was technical issues. Specifically, we initially faced difficulties rendering templates in Flask. However, through troubleshooting and research, we were able to resolve the issue efficiently. Another technical issue we faced was related to storing images in the database. We were able to overcome this challenge by using the MySQL-connector blob datatype, which allowed us to store images easily. Additionally, we leveraged request.files to obtain user files, and this helped us solve the error of saving images in a folder for further fingerprint scanning.

Fingerprint assessment: We experienced some difficulties in assessing the fingerprints during the project's initial stages. Specifically, the fingerprint data was being stored in a text file, which was challenging to work with. We were able to convert the text file into a BMP file format, which made it easier to assess the fingerprint data.
