A burglar alarm system using Arduino

Abstract

There is a growing interest in intelligent home and work network as a way to offer a comfortable, convenient and safe environment for occupants. In order to enhance the occupants’ convenience and safety from burglary and other crimes, security system is indispensable in the field of intelligent home network. The requirements of a security system include low cost, low power consumption, easy installation and rapid response to alarm incidents. In previous systems, there is a use of smart cards and other costly security systems for access ,the system which is not that much secure. Smart cards can be stolen or misused by the intruders. The environment has seen a rapid introduction of network enabled digital technology and associated shortcomings. By considering above flaws in systems, the level of security is increased in the proposed system by using ardruino based security system which based on microcontroller and sensor. This technology provides exciting and new opportunities to increase the connectivity of devices for security purposes. In this project focus is on a sensor based security in which there is a motion sensor, buzzer, LED, Arduino.
