18-Low Cost Home Security System Using Raspberry PI

Image 16 of 44

Nowadays home security systems are a very important part of modern-day houses. High-tech companies such as ADT and Google provide home security services at a very high cost. As an alternative to the above we provide a low-cost home security system using Raspberry Pi. Our solution is powerful and small-size system that can be used as a decent Home Security System. Our Home Security system consists of a main door lock, python programming language and OpenCV package, Keypad Number Entry, USB camera, RFID sensor and a solenoid 12V DC electric lock. A PIR sensor is used to detect motion of visitors and captures images via the USB webcam and sends a notification to the home owner’s email. Our system also uses an alarm system, live streaming video and static pictures. View or download a PDF version of this poster.
