Mechatronic Engineering Projects
01. Arduino Based Security System
The
idea of the project was to create a security system that has the
ability to sense and detect an intruder and then give an output. This
was chose mainly to protect the households or business places of people
from thieves or any other person who wishes them and their property
harm. This system was designed for the normal people who can’t afford
security systems since they are expensive. It can be marketed and sold
to normal people since the manufacture and design cost of the project is
low.
The
design was created with the use of a PIR sensor as the input. Then the
input signal will travel to the Arduino Board (controller) with the use
of wires. Then the Arduino board will send a signal to the GSM module
which will in turn either send a message or a call. This is the basic
summary of the design. The reasons for choosing these components are
shown below and lots of research was carried out during this selection
process. After the creation of codes and hardware a testing stage was
carried out. This showed how the system works and how efficient it is.
Then the conclusion and a further development was created.
