Smart Security System using sound and motion
detection
Abstract- Since the planet is becoming more
chaotic as everyday advances, feeble security
frameworks are being penetrated easily.
Additionally, if we tend to try and create it
stronger and simpler, sadly we need to wear
down the insane quantity of the price of the
quality components. However, in this paper, we
put effort to inaugurate cost-effective and robust
security. Utilizing motor, Arduino Uno, PIR
sensor, sound sensor, LED, vibration sensor,
LCD display, keypad to develop the proposed
framework which can be purchased and utilized
by an individual with a medium-salary to secure
his significant things and can be installed in
shops. A prototype of the model has been
created to point out the effectiveness,
profitability, and cost analysis of the proposed
framework. The outcome shows that the
framework is cost-efficient and cheap to the
middle-class people and tiny shopkeepers of the
community.
 
Key Words- Optimal security system, cost-
efficient, false door, easy installation, Arduino

I. INTRODUCTION
Today’s world is full of chaos and problems.
People are being mischievous day by day and
doing a heap of crimes. There are a lot of
robberies that happen in a small town, shops,
and houses. Sometimes people lost their entire
life’s income and also their lives because of this
robbery. For that reason, people use different
types of security systems to protect themselves
and their assets.  and cost efficiency of the system and finally,
A lot of security systems already exist in the
market. These security systems are giving high
security but they are also very expensive. As a
result, middle-class people cannot afford them.
There is also some cheap security system that
1
exists in the market but these have some
problems. For these reasons we want to build a
smart security system that will be less expensive
and give a quality of security as the middle-
class people and small shopkeepers can easily
afford it.
In our system, we have solved two issues.
Firstly, we have created a system in an
exceedingly approach that’s price economical
and provides good security. Our target market is
middle-class people and also tiny shopkeepers.
Using Arduino Uno, PIR sensor, LDR, GSM
module combined, we have been able to
produce a security system which can be in
middle-class people’s range to purchase.
Moreover, it will be so easy to put in and
operate so that people don’t need to understand
a lot concerning technology to use it. Secondly,
in most cases, if somebody breaks the vault or
the system there’s nothing that may stop him
from stealing. However, we will create a false
door using a motor to create an illusion that the
vault is empty. It doesn’t only create the illusion
however additionally hides the precious things.
Whenever somebody tries to interrupt it with
something, the door automatically rises and
hides the precious assets. This way, assets might
be saved, and also the owner can be informed
right away.
The rest of the paper is organized as follows:
Section II details the background study behind
the realization of this work. Section III
illustrates the overall idea of the proposed
model alongside the circuit details of the
proposed model in Proteus simulation and 3d
model. Section IV discusses about the results
Section V concludes the paper and discusses
future work.
II. LITERATURE REVIEW

In the age of recent technology, individuals
have devoted their time to build a systematic
sensible lock system utilizing the instrument
available within the current time. The priority
here is to create a system that is both prices
efficient and supply better security to evade
safety problems and secure precious things
from the culprit. To serve the needs of a smart
security system, some work has already been
done by others to build that kind of system.
In this system, a digital interface is utilized
rather than a physical key to access the system
[1]. Here the components used are Raspberry
Pi, Electronic Lock, Bluetooth lock, digital
password. The system detects a person with
PIR Sensor and prompts a message to put a
password which may be through with the
software too however phone has to connect
with the security system and log the info.
Wrong Password input sends an email stating
“Intruder” to the admin of the system and
during a power cut the system needs to open
manually and provide no other security
measurement. 
In another approach to making such a system
to prevent an attacker from accessing the safe
is to detect the person using a short-range IR
sensor and take a snapshot of that person to
send it to the server for the facial recognition
system to analyze the image and distinguish
between the approved and intruder[2]. Some
more work has been done on the system
development where the proposed system is to
use bi-modal bio-metrics which consist of
fingerprint and iris scanner which then run a
check with the saved data from the database
and these need a complex calculation to
recognize the authenticate person[3]. In
another work, the approach is based on a
security system combining with RFID tag,
MEMS Technology, GSM System, and
micro-controller and sending passwords on
different levels to verify. This process is time-
consuming [4].

There are a bunch of data structures for
example ZigBee which are used to store
knowledge derived from different sensors [5].
Yet in many other ways, Arduino mega and
the programmable micro-controller interface
is used in goal for storage [6]. Those versions
include the GSM module and  Biometric
recognition was used in place of laser and
motion sensors. Another usage fits for
Arduino UNO along with the PIR motion
sensor and Wi-Fi module for setting up
Wireless security[7].
But, all of this protection infrastructure has
multiple protections scale and as per customer
requirements, along with high tech
configuration comes with a high cost that
would not be feasible for middle-class people
who want to protect their personal belongings
from trespassers. Compared to our system the
above versions satisfy the safety criteria and
cost-efficient, too. The systems provide not
only a modern smart protection system but
also lift the fake door if the trespassers are
attempting to open the lock using machines
including drill and hammer.
III. METHODOLOGY
A concept has been developed to have a
primary idea of how the system should look and
work. We design that the back door is not
apparent, and contact with the user is fine. In
addition to other cheap sensors and components,
the Arduino UNO was used as the processing
unit for the system to be economic. Fig.1
presents the block diagram of the proposed
model.

USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header,
and a reset button. Arduino processes this
directional value and gives output to the
corresponding GSM to warn the owners about
potential threads. As for the other components,
Sound sensors input the analog data and input in
uno. Thus, for a motor to operate needs a set of
proper threshold levels. It takes a high potential
which uno provides very easily.

There is an Arduino UNO that is connected to a
4x4 keypad, PIR sensor, LED, GSM, and LCD.
It was kept in the front of the box so that it can
view from outside. A 4x4 The keypad is placed
below to take a password. There is PIR just
behind the keypad to detect motion and turn on
the LED so that it will light up the keypad.
After verification there is an LCD was placed
up of the square hole to display the password in
“*” and whether the vault is open or the
password is wrong. GSM module is under the
vault to send a message if the password is
wrong consecutively three times.

 IV. RESULTS
To get the desired result from the sound sensor
and displayed in the LCD screen we defined the
LCD pin number that is going to get the input
value from Arduino and that is LiquidCrystal
LCD (9,8,7,6,5,4). Inside the bracket are the pin
numbers. Followed by that we gave the pin
value 13 to a variable called status where the
toggled value is passed to the Arduino 13 pin
number. Finally made the LCD panel on by
lcd.begin(16,2) here 16,2 means a 2 line display
each character capacity to show is 16. While
toggling the output on the LCD screen is:
Pin high = 1V = Detected!
Pin low = 0V = Not Detected!
There is a delay value of 500 so that we can see
the toggle difference.
Similar to the sound sensor for the PIR sensor
first, results from the PIR sensor are displayed
on the LCD screen. We defined the LCD pin
number that is going to get the input value from
Arduino and that is LiquidCrystal LCD
(9,8,7,6,5,4). Followed by that we gave the pin
value A0 to a variable called status where the
toggled value is passed to the Arduino A0 pin
number. While toggling the output on the LCD
screen is:
Pin high = 1V = Welcome!
Pin low = 0V = No one here!
On the keypad section, Similar to sound and
PIR sensor for Keypad first, the result from the
keypad sensor is displayed in the LCD screen
where we defined the LCD pin number that is
going to get the input value from Arduino and
that is LiquidCrystal LCD (9,8,7,6,5,4). Second,
we defined the number of rows and columns the
keypad has which is 4. In this part, an important
thing where row pins are connected to Arduino
3,2,19 and 18 pins were pressing the keypad’s
row value is sent to the Arduino and column
pins are connected to 17,16,15 and 14 pin
number to Arduino. Finally inside a loop
matching the given master key or not matched
5
according to the master key gives the following
results:
Output on the LCD screen is:
Pressing 1,2,3,4 = Door Open       
Pressing random = Invalid Password
The motor part, the motor is connected to
Arduino 11 and 12 number pins where the
motor’s M1 and M2 are defined. Depending on
the pins it gets rotated in one direction and gets
anti-rotation in the other direction. In between
this one direction and another direction, there is
a certain delay set to 3000.
Output: With the help of motor driver L298 it
shows the motor is rotating anti-clockwise
direction.
For GSM modules it sends the user a message
using UART protocol. With the help of Arduino
AT commands are used to send and receive
SMS. Here Arduino 0 and 1 pins are RX and
TX pins which are set to gsm module’s transfer
and receive pin for sending and getting
information. However, the gsm library in
arduino is used.
Output: 
For sending:
AT+CMGF=1
AT+CMGS=\"+91xxxxxxxxxx
I am SMS from GSM Module
For receiving:
AT+CNMI=2,2,0,0,0
Cost Analysis- One of the main challenges
behind the smart security system was reducing
the overall expense of a reliable security
system. For most middle-class families and
small shop owners, affordability is an essential
problem.We did a market research and at a very
cheap expense, we tried to develop the system.
The cost estimate based on the proposed system
is found in Table 1.
