PIR sensors are widely applied in wireless residential security systems, home alarms systems and many more security circuits as motion detector sensors. A typical PIR sensor detects the infrared red (IR) waves from human body and so it is also known as ‘human sensor’. It would be wonderful if we interface PIR sensor to Arduino …

This alarm is a good way to alert you if somebody messes with your bike. I had a bicycle stolen a while back and decided there had to be a better way to keep my bike secure. When I searched for bicycle alarms, all I could find were alarms that responded to sudden movement or …
Arduino-Based Shadow alarms are usually used for protection against theft. A shadow alarm is a device that sounds an alarm when a shadow falls on it. Described here is a simple circuit of an Arduino based shadow alarm. This compact shadow alarm unit is capable of sensing a moving shadow in a restricted area, and …
This project deals with the design & development of a theft control system for home, which is being used to prevent/control any theft attempt. The developed system makes use of an embedded system (comprises an open hardware microcontroller and a gsm modem) based on Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) technology. The designed & developed …
I have a home security system that was installed when my home was built in the early 1990’s. It is, or was until I modified it, a wired perimeter system with a single wired motion detector. The system is a DSC PC1550 and originally was monitored by a well known alarm system service, a three …

Preface My daughter asked me to build her a treasure chest that she could use to store her most valuable things. Obviously she demanded it to have some kind of a locking mechanism so only she could open the box. First thought was to use a keypad but then her grandfather bought her a diary with …
Introduction Hi, friends. I came to this idea of controlling a door latch/lock remotely using a smartphone when I saw many people many times forget to carry latch/lock keys when they leave the house for a short trip, or the door gets latched accidentally while casually talking to neighbors, etc. In such cases, there remains …

Today we are in a world where robbery has increased to a great extent. Hence there is a need to protect everything using a security system. Here is a small project on security system called ULTRA SECURITY SYSTEM which will be very useful. This system is three way protected and consists of three sensors which …
