Thief Detection Using PIR Sensor

and Arduino
A simple security system project
Arduino Uno Details
• • Microcontroller: ATmega328P
• • Operating Voltage: 5V
• • Digital I/O Pins: 14 (of which 6 provide PWM
output)
• • Analog Input Pins: 6
• • Clock Speed: 16 MHz
• • USB connection for programming and power
• • Widely used in hobby and educational
projects
PIR Motion Sensor Working
• • PIR (Passive Infrared) sensors detect motion
by measuring infrared radiation.
• • All objects emit some level of IR radiation.
• • The sensor has two slots made of a special
material that is sensitive to IR.
• • When a warm body like a human passes by,
the sensor detects a change in IR levels.
• • This change triggers the sensor to send a
HIGH signal to the connected microcontroller.
Working Principle of the Project
• • PIR sensor continuously monitors for
motion.
• • When motion is detected, it sends a signal to
Arduino Uno.
• • Arduino processes the signal and can
activate an alarm, buzzer, or notification.
• • Helps to alert when unauthorized movement
is detected in the secured area.
Reliability for Thief Detection
• • Effective for indoor environments.
• • Low power consumption, easy to maintain.
• • Quick response to motion.
• • Reduces need for constant human
monitoring.
• • Can be integrated with alarms or IoT systems
for alerts.
Arduino IDE
• • Open-source software for writing and
uploading code to Arduino boards.
• • Supports C/C++ programming.
• • Simple and user-friendly interface.
• • Includes serial monitor for debugging.
• • Easily integrates libraries and examples.
Limitations
• • Limited range and detection angle of PIR
sensor.
• • Cannot differentiate between humans and
animals.
• • Prone to false triggers (heat sources,
airflow).
• • Not suitable for outdoor environments
without protection.
• • No camera or image verification capability.
Future Improvement
• • Integrate with camera for visual
confirmation.
• • Use AI to distinguish between human and
non-human motion.
• • Add GSM or Wi-Fi module for remote alerts.
• • Improve power management with solar
panels.
• • Deploy multiple sensors for wide area
coverage.
