Title: Prepare a report on electronic
home security system.
• Introduction: We have designed an interesting and cheap home
security alarm. This Gadget helps you to protect your house from
thieves. In this project we are going to use an Arduino Uno R3 Board,
P.I.R Sensor module, LCD and some other components. This Project
can either power with 9V Battery or with U.S.B of your computer. This
is a basic motion-sensing alarm that detects when someone enters
the area. When an intruder is detected, it activates a siren. Our body
generates heat energy in the form of infrared which is invisible to
human eyes. But it can be detected by electronic sensor. This type of
sensor is made up of crystalline material that is Pyroelectric. In this
project, we are using P.I.R. Motion Sensor Module as an infrared
sensor that generates electric charge when exposed in heat and
sends a signal to Arduino. According to level of the infrared in front of
sensor, Arduino displays the status on L.C.D and start buzzing
speaker and glows the L.E.D.A simple program is running on Arduino
which checks sensor if anything is moved or new object has been
detected.

• Components Required:
➢ Arduino Uno
➢ P.I.R Sensor Module
➢ L.C.D(16 X 2)
➢ 9V Battery
➢ 9V Battery Clip
➢ L.E.D
➢ Piezo Buzzer
➢ Breadboard
➢ Some Jumper Wires
➢ An USB Cable
➢ A Computer

• Working:

This system is a basic motion activated alarm. It is built around an


Arduino Microcontroller. It is connected to a PIR motion sensor, a
buzzer, a resistor, and a pair of external terminals. The whole system is
battery powered so that it is easily portable. Once you have the code,
you can connect all the external parts. The easiest way to do this is with
a breadboard. This will let you make temporary connections to test
everything out.

Step 1: Connecting the P.I.R sensor to Arduino:

1. Connect Vcc pin of P.I.R sensor to positive terminal of Arduino


(5V).

2. Connect Gnd pin of P.I.R sensor to any ground pin of Arduino.
3. Connect out pin of P.I.R sensor to Pin no. 7 of Arduino.

Step 2: Connecting L.E.D and Piezo Buzzer to Arduino

Connecting L.E.D

1. Connect Positive terminal (Longer Lead) Of L.E.D To Arduino Pin


no. 13.
2. Connect Negative terminal (Shorter Lead) Of L.E.D To Any Ground
Pin.
Connecting Piezo Buzzer
1. Connect Positive terminal (Red Wire) Of Buzzer to Arduino Pin no.
10.
2. Connect Negative terminal (Black Wire) Of Buzzer to Any Ground
Pin.

Step 3: Connecting L.C.D to Arduino:

To wire your LCD screen to your Arduino, connect the following pins:
LCD RS pin to digital pin 12
LCD Enable pin to digital pin 11
LCD D4 pin to digital pin 5
LCD D5 pin to digital pin 4
LCD D6 pin to digital pin 3
LCD D7 pin to digital pin 2
Additionally, wire a 10K pot to +5V and GND, with its wiper (output) to
LCD screens VO pin (pin3).

Step 4: Programming Arduino:

1. Download Arduino IDE 1.0.6.


2. Connect Your Arduino to your computer using USB Cable.
3. Open Arduino IDE, choose your correct board from Tools—Boards.
4. Choose Your Correct Port from Tools--Serial Port.
5. Copy the following sketch which appears in your Web Browser to
your Arduino Sketch Page.
6. Click on Upload Icon or go to File—Upload.

Step 5: Drill Holes in the Housing:

Next we need to drill a few holes in the housing so that we can mount
all the parts. Start by using a ¼" hole in one end of the housing. This will
be where we mount the buzzer. Then use a ¾" hole saw to drill a hole in
the other side of the housing. This will be where we mount the motion
sensor

Step 6: Glue the Motion Sensor and the Buzzer in Place:

Apply a small amount of hot glue around the motion sensor where it
lines up with the hole in the housing. Then press the motion sensor into
the hole. Apply more hot glue around the outside and hold it in place
until the glue cools. Then apply a small amount of hot glue to the face of
the buzzer. Align the hole in the buzzer with the hole in the housing and
press it in place. Hold the buzzer in this position until the glue dries.

Step 7: Close Up the Housing:

The last thing that you need to do is connect the battery and close up
the housing.

• Advantages:
1. The given system is handy and portable, and thus can be easily
carried from one place to another.
2. The circuitry is not that complicated and thus can be easily
troubleshooted.
3. The given system sets off a powerful buzzer, and it is effective as
any other alarm system available in the market.

• Disadvantages:
1. The given alarm system determines the presence of the intruder
only, and does not determine how many persons are in there
actually.
2. The alarm activates only when the person cuts through the line of
the PIR sensor.

• Applications:

This type of motion sensing alarm system can be easily employable for
security purposes at banks, various offices and even for sensitive
establishments such as for military. We can easily set up this system for
household purposes.

• Conclusion:

Thus, we have designed a home security alarm system using Arduino


and PIR motion sensor, which is handy, portable, cost-effective and
highly effective as well. Such alarm systems are hugely in demand for
security purposes, and thus the given system can be proved useful and
effective in view of the above features.
