Real Time Home Security System using GSM Technology-An Anti-theft System! This project deals with the design & development of a theft control system for home, which is being used to prevent/control ...

He’s using an Arduino Uno and an Ethernet breakout board to hook it up to the network. This allows him to send text messages to himself when the alarm system is armed, disarmed, or triggered.

However, if you’re just looking to catch a sandwich thief at work or a cat spilling over all you water bottles, then Make shows you how to build an alarm system with an Arduino and a USB camera.

You'll need an Arduino along with a bunch of various sensors to get the project rolling, and once it's all set up you'll have a simple, but cheap system to monitor your home.

He figured that monitoring the alarm’s LEDs would make the most sense, so he used a bit of Ethernet cable and wired all of the system’s indicators to his Arduino board.

Luckily, Arduino’s own cloud services make it surprisingly easy to code for the Oplà. I opened the box, plugged the board into the Carrier, and then connected the board to my computer.

In this step-by-step tutorial, you'll learn how to make a very loud, simple, and powerful alarm using everyday materials. Perfect for enhancing security at home, this video guides you through the ...
