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!

Deba168's system uses two Arduinos, an RF transmitter, a motion sensor, and a few other parts to piece it all together. When the motion sensor detects movement, it buzzes the other Arduino.

You can connect any intrusion detection unit (such as a light fence or a motion sensor) to the input connector J2. Note that an active-low (L) at pin 1 of connector J2 triggers the security system.

Motion sensors are an essential component of any home security system. But in Kangaroo’s current ecosystem, motion sensors are the only component.. On the upside, that means you don’t need a ...

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

READ: Wyze Cam v2 Security Camera Review Wyze Sense is as simple as a home security system can be; it takes literally minutes to install and setup. Users plug a small USB bridge into the back of a ...

A few weeks ago, Aqara was in the news with the release of its new P2 motion sensor.I am a big fan of motion sensors for smart homes as they allow for some pretty rad automations based on who’s ...

Motion and entry sensors are ideal for monitoring your home while you're away, but most of these devices are part of a home security system and require a hub. The Kangaroo Motion + Entry Sensor ...
