Abstract

Security has become a major concern these days especially with the burgeoning rate of thefts and crimes. Studies show that homes without security systems are more likely to be targeted by burglars than those with professionally monitored systems. Security systems are often the first line of defense against break-ins. Today, due to the advancements in technology and in the Internet of Things (IoT), it is possible to envision pervasive connectivity, storage and automation in systems. This paper focuses on designing and developing a model of an IoT-Based security system for homes, banks and offices in need of security. The proposed system has provision for theft and fire detection and sends alerts to the user through a text message. It also captures a number of snapshots of the intruder and mails it to the user. When compared to the other existing systems, the leverage obtained by preferring this system is that the user receives alerts irrespective of his location and whether or not he is connected to the internet or not. This system also consumes less power as the camera is activated and takes snapshots only in the presence of an intruder, unlike the CCTV system, where live feed is recorded round the clock. This system not only notifies the user but also the neighbor so that immediate action could be taken.
