Anti-Thief Alarm System: Improvisation and Manipulation of Arduino to Develop a Security Device

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Nowadays, security demands are rapidly increasing. It is without a doubt the never-ending need of the society today. People spend lots of money in the market trying to secure their own homes. The objective of this study is to provide a fully functional and highly reliable security device at an affordable price.

METHODS

The researchers formulated a design or a schematic diagram for their device. The researchers ordered the materials to be used in their research such as Arduino platform, human body sensor, piezo buzzer, power supply, led lights, jumper wires, and bread board. After the researchers received all the materials, the researchers assembled it according to their schematic diagram. After assembling, the researchers created a code to be programmed in the Arduino platform, which will serve as an Artificial Intelligence (AI).

RESULTS

The researchers then tested the device for its functionality. After assuring that the device was in its optimal condition, the researchers then tested and recorded the data that the device had given them that answers their SOP.

DISCUSSIONS

The main findings emerging from the study were summarized as follows:9V battery can sustain the device not longer than 2 hours and 28 minutes. There is no significant difference between the time delay intervals of the sensor detecting body induction. There is a significant difference between the range of the sensor actively detecting body induction and the range of the sensor not detecting body induction.
