The Secure, Automated Home
Project Team: Alec Kulbacki
Project Advisor: W. Thomas Miller
Background:
People expect more from of their possessions
Basic security systems have limited functionality
Creating a basic system then adding additional
peripherals will appeal to consumers
Problem to be Addressed:
There will be a wide range of peripherals.
The system will be complicated.
Must find a way to integrate every device.
Proposed Solution:
Design program to control all of the peripherals.
Run code on a laptop computer.
Utilize basic microcontroller to aid in communication.
Objectives:
Primary:
Design security system with home automation functions
Select devices to be used
Establish a way for all devices to communicate with the
system.
Secondary:
Allow devices to communicate wirelessly
Add GSM connectivity to the system
Features:
Security:
Automation:
Break in Detection
Home Tracking
Hazard Detection
Light Automation
Keypad or Fingerprint
Reader
Door Automation
Mobile Soundtrack
Burglary Detection
Primary security function
Hall effect sensors at windows
and doors
Detect variations in
electromagnetic field.
Hazard Detection
Smoke Detectors
Traditionally Standalone
Smaller integrated circuit
detectors.
Can be linked to microcontroller.
Arming / Disarming
Standard Keypad
Easy to interface
Fingerprint Reader
More difficult to store image
SMS keyword from registered
number
Home Tracking
Sensors placed at each door
Laser sensors
Too expensive
Ultrasonic motion detectors
Less expensive option
Light Automation
Will rely heavily on home tracking system
Will implement simple voltage divider
with photoresistor in order to detect
night/day.
Door Automation
Will be simulated
Small bidirectional motor will
represent motorized door
Controlled using pulse width
modulation
Mobile Soundtrack
Music will follow individual
being tracked
Master sound system connected
to multiple speakers
Transmission gates will toggle
speakers on/off
Indirect Communication:
Computer will communicate
with basic microcontroller
Microcontroller will also
communicate with devices
Certain analysis may be done
on microcontroller
GSM Module
Global System for Mobile
Communication
Allows SMS communication
Costly
Wireless Communication:
Can be linked to devices for
wireless communication
Can be connected via USB
Will increase price tag on
project
Conclusion:
Design of security system with additional functions
Selecting components
Evaluating their behavior
Writing appropriate code to drive peripherals
Integration of all devices involved
Indirectly connect devices to computer using
microcontroller or wireless devices
