Here is an ultra simple Arduino Night Alarm project wired around a handful of inexpensive and easily available components. One advantage of using Arduino as a security system is the flexibility!

An Arduino is a much better choice than a Raspberry Pi for tasks that require real-time input and responses. While a Pi can ...

Here is a simple general-purpose security alarm circuit built on the Arduino platform. It brings up an obtrusive alert signal when an intrusion/theft attempt is observed by its front-end sensor. In ...

Once you get the alarm set up, it’ll sense movement near the Arduino, snap a picture, then send it over to you using If This Then That. All you’ll need is an Arduino Yún, PIR sensor, a USB ...

If you have an upcoming long distance move and you're concerned about thieves breaking into your moving truck you can rig up a motion alarm system that will send a text message as well as trigger ...

The alarm/target works using a piezoelectric sensor attached to the clock’s housing. When the alarm sounds, if it senses a dart hit by counting the signal pulses generated, it turns off.
