Abstract
Laser based Security System is a type of security and alarm system that
uses laser light and a light sensor. A security system protects our homes,
offices, banks, lockers etc. from intrusion and unauthorised access. There
are different types of security systems available and laser based security
system is an important and efficient type.
A Laser security system can acts as a standalone system, which makes
some sound or noise when it detects any irregular activity, or can be part
of a much bigger security and home automation system, which can send
messages, call the owner etc.
In this project, we have designed a simple DIY lased based security
system, which acts as a tripwire like security system and triggers an alarm
when the laser in interrupted.
Laser Pointer acts as the main source of light in this project. We have
used a small laser pointer with an output power of less than 1mW. The
laser pointer emits red light and the wavelength of the laser output is not
very strong.

Introduction

A simple, cheap and effective laser based security system is
developed in this project. Let us see the working of this project.
First, the Op – Amp circuit acts as a comparator i.e. it compares
the voltages at the inverting and non – inverting terminals and
produces an output accordingly.
The LDR – 10 KΩ resistor Voltage divider is connected to the
non – inverting terminal of Op –Amp and a POT is connected to
the inverting terminal. Assume, the laser pointer is placed directly
in line of sight to the LDR and the light from the laser is
continuously being incident on LDR. In this situation, the
resistance of LDR falls down to few Ohms (or tens of Ohms) and
as a result, the voltage at the non – inverting terminal will be less
than that at the inverting voltage. The output of the Op –Amp is
low and the transistor is OFF.

2.3 Working
The design of the laser security system circuit is very simple. We
will see the design of the circuit in this section and in the working
explanation we will see the working of the individual
component.Coming to the design of the circuit, first, the LDR and
a 10 K Ω resistor are connected in a voltage divider fashion and
its output (common point) is connected to the pin 3 (non –
inverting) of the Op- Amp IC LM358.For the inverting terminal
(pin 2), connect the wiper of a 10 KΩ potentiometer (other two
terminal of the POT are connected to VCC and GND)The output
of the Op – Amp (Pin 1) is connected to the base of the transistor
(BC547) through a resistor.100 nF is connected between pins 5
and GND. A buzzer is connected to pin 3 of 555 IC.

A buzzer or beeper is an audio signaling device,[1] which may
be mechanical, electromechanical, or piezoelectric (piezo for short).
Typical uses of buzzers and beepers include alarm
devices, timers, train and confirmation of user input such as a mouse click
or keystrok

4.LDR
The LDR acts as a light sensor in this project. As the intensity of the light
falling on the LDR increases, the resistance of the LDR decreases and
vice – versa. The LDR is used in combination with the laser to form the
light sensor and source.

5.Laser Diode
Laser Pointer acts as the main source of light in this project. We have
used a small laser pointer with an output power of less than 1mW. The
laser pointer emits red light and the wavelength of the laser output is
between 630 nm to 680 nm.pter-5

is very simple.
If used with a battery, the laser security system can work even
when there is a power outage.

Conclusion
4.1 Conclusion
This system for security uses the combination of LASER light and LDR.
The LDR module has an onboard potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity of
LDR, so that it only senses laser light falling onto it. The concept is quite
simple and similar to what we see in movies where antique, priceless
ornaments are protected under laser lights. As someone crosses these
lights, an alarm runs on to indicate unauthorised presence. This project
works similarly. In normal conditions, where there is always laser light
falling on the LDR, the LDR module always gives a high signal to
microcontroller. When someone crosses this laser light, it will behave as
an obstruction between the LDR module and laser light, resulting in no
light falling on LDR. In such cases LDR module gives a low signal to the
microcontroller, which indicates it to switch on an alarm

4.2 Future Scope
Laser Security System can be used in safety lockers in our homes, where
even if the locker’s code is hacked, it acts as an additional layer of
security.
Apart from security systems, this laser based setup can also be used to
check if pets or babies crossed a certain boundary.
