System for Detecting Intrusions using Raspberry PI

Abstract

Home invasions and thefts have gotten far too frequent in recent years. However, it is uncommon for people to be familiar with different systems, such as intrusion detectors, surveillance systems, and so on. The average person finds it challenging to maintain his home secure as a result. CCTV cameras are expensive in surveillance since they employ computers. It sets aside an excessive amount of space for ongoing recording and needs personnel to find irregularities. Our goal is to develop a comprehensive home security system that will help homeowners protect their properties from such disasters. The Raspberry Pi4-based Home Security System project aims to let someone secure their home against burglary and theft in one go. However, the Raspberry Pi system is significantly less expensive, has greater resolution, and has capabilities that use less power than the current system. Here, infrared (IR) sensors are used as straightforward yet effective triggers for human presence. For tiny confidential data area surveillance, this solution is appropriate. i.e., a home office, a bank restroom, etc. The image is taken by the camera and momentarily saved in the Raspberry Pi module whenever motion is detected by the PIR sensor within the room. Applications built on the Internet of Things can be used remotely to monitor activities and receive alerts when motion is detected.
