5. HARDWARE COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

5.1 Arduino UNO R3

The Arduino uno is a microcontroller board based on the

ATmega328. Arduino is an open-source, prototyping
platform and its simplicity makes it ideal for hobbyists to
use as well as professionals. The Arduino Uno has 14
digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM
outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a
USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset
button. It contains everything needed to support the
microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a
USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery Fig-2: Ultrasonic Sensor

for the echo of the sound to reflect back. The sensor has 2
openings on its front. One opening transmits ultrasonic
waves, (like a tiny speaker), the other receives them, (like a
tiny microphone). The speed of sound is approximately
341 meters (1100 feet) per second in air[3]. The ultrasonic
sensor uses this information along with the time difference
between sending and receiving the sound pulse to
determine the distance to an object.

6. CONCLUSION

This paper acknowledges user friendly, low cost,

augmented home security system. After a researched
study of literatures of many topics that consist of home
automation design and wireless networks, simple system
to improve the standards is developed.[5] It is a real-time
monitorable and remote controlled system developed with
simple hardware which simplifies the possibility of error
free security system. This system can be easily
implemented with maximum reliability and the high
security with lesser cost is a special enhancement from the
existing systems for Home security.
