Smart Home Security with Dual Modes

Abstract

The internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that has shown impact to revolutionize individual live. In the Integration Era in year 2005-2018, the researcher and experts have started to combine the security system with the IoT technology. One of the main reasons is, the IoT being used as the source of data storage. Same as Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), as one of the main component in security system; the data storage is being upgraded from a digital video recorder (DVR) which is a kind of memory card to an endless network video recorder (NVR), which is internet cloud data storage. The NVR camera system is widely known as Internet Protocol Camera (IP Camera). This project is mainly focusing on the security system which could be implemented by community, either in-house or workplace, as the system has dual modes of operation (security mode and calibration mode). The improvement in term of notification, user friendly system is further discussed in this paper. From the notification, the users shall be aware with the location of the burglar. This study shall provide the development of new Smart Home Security, focusing on CCTV system technology.
