Project Key Components
The SMD acts as a bridge between the script and the modules. It is responsible for interpreting the commands sent by the script and translating them into actions that read input from the and actuate the visual and audible warning signals.
The measures the distance between the sensor and an object in its path. It provides distance data to the script for security monitoring.
The serves as the audible warning. It emits sound when activated when there is an object in the designated area.
The is used to provide visual warning. It can emit different colors and light intensities as programmed.
The SMD library is at the heart of the application. It communicates with the SMD using a specific communication protocol, sending commands to read the and actuate the visual and audible warnings, the and the .
Project Key Features
Distance-based Security Monitoring
Getting Started
Hardware Setup
Make sure that the SMD is powered and all connections are correct.
Project Wiring Diagram
Run the Application
Execute the script, initiating the Security System application.
Customize Security Thresholds
Adjust the predetermined distance threshold in the script to customize the security monitoring levels.
Experiment with different colors and sound patterns for the LED and buzzer to suit specific security scenarios.
The Security System continuously monitors the distance measured by the . If the distance of the detected object is equal or closer than the determined distance value, the alert system will be activated.
Visual Feedback with the
The displays red and blue lights to indicate the security status. Red lights may represent an alert or danger, while blue lights indicate a normal or safe condition.
Audible Feedback with the
The emits a sound when the system detects a potential security threat, providing an audible alert to draw attention to the situation.
Connect the SMD to the PC or Arduino board using or .
Connect the , the and the to the SMD using an RJ-45 cable.
Observe the displaying colors and the emitting sound based on the detected distance.
