Abstract

This project is about designing and building a Green Home Security System using the GSM method. It consists of two subsystems, the first is the home security system. In this system, an Arduino Microcontroller is considered as the heart of the project as it is used to combine all the other components used. A motion sensor and a temperature sensor are connected to the Arduino and both of them give the input to the system. For the output part, a piezo buzzer and a GSM module are used. Arduino has as in-built analog to digital convertor (ADC) which reads the signals from the sensors and produce the output in form of sound through the piezo buzzer and text messages through the GSM module. The idea of the system is that; the Arduino will keep configuring the sensors until an obstacle is detected, and once it does, the piezo alarm will start, and a text message will be sent to a desired number that can be set from the coding of the system. The second part is the solar power system, which is considered as the power supply of the Home Security System. In this system, a 20-watt solar panel is used to generate power with a maximum input voltage of 18V. This project can be used in houses, offices and many more places, and the use of it gives great level of security, and thus, a peace of mind to the owner, as the system will keep notifying the owner about any case inside the house.
