Implementation of a Low-Cost IoT Enabled Surveillance Security System

Security is a requirement in society, yet its wide implementation is held back because of high expenses, and barriers to the use of technology. Experimental implementation of security at low cost will only help in promoting the technology at more affordable prices. This paper describes the design of a security system of surveillance using Raspberry Pi and Arduino UNO. The design senses the presence of $a$ human in a surveillance area and immediately sets off the buzzer and simultaneously starts capturing video of the motion it had detected and stores it in a folder. When the design senses a motion, it immediately sends an SMS to the user. The user of this design can see the live video of the motion it detects using the internet connection from a remote area. Our objective of making a low-cost surveillance area security system has been mostly fulfilled. Although this is a low-cost project, features can be compared with existing commercially available systems.
