Abstract
A method of using an electronic locking system to access one of a plurality of lockers includes programming the electronic locking system by recording at least one biometric characteristic of a user when the user is located at the plurality of lockers, and associating the recorded at least one biometric characteristic of the user with the one of a plurality of lockers so that the user is authorized to access the one of a plurality of lockers. The method includes re-recording the at least one biometric characteristic of the user and comparing the re-recorded at least one biometric characteristic of the user with the recorded at least one biometric characteristic of the user, and unlocking the one of a plurality of lockers if the re-recorded at least one biometric characteristic of the user matches the recorded at least one biometric characteristic of the user.
