Design and Build an IoT (Internet of Things)-Based Home Security System Using Arduino Mega 2560 With ESP32

Abstract

The house is one of the basic needs in human life. The house must also provide a sense of security for the owner. Anxiety often occurs when we leave the house. Therefore, to provide a sense of security for homeowners when leaving the house, a home security system is needed. Home security system is a technological development that aims to help humans to monitor the condition of the house. This study aims to design a home security system in miniature by utilizing PIR sensors, LDR sensors, JM-101 sensors, ESP32-CAM, Buzzer, Relay, Selenoid Door Lock, Arduino Mega 2560 and ESP32. The method used is PIECES and Prototype. The test results if the PIR sensor detects motion, the Buzzer will turn on as an alarm, and the ESP32-CAM will take pictures. The LDR sensor can capture the intensity of the light in the room which will be forwarded to the relay to turn on the lights automatically. the JM-101 sensor will scan the homeowner's fingerprint and the Solenoid Door Lock will unlock the house's door. In addition, the Arduino Mega 2560 Microcontroller is used as the brain or center for processing data obtained from the sensor to be forwarded to the actuator components and the ESP32 is used to send messages via the telegram bot application. a telegram message was also successfully sent to the homeowner.
