Home Security Using Smart Photo Frame

Abstract

The security and privacy issue have become worse with the advancement of the technology. The security is a major issue that needs to be addressed. The task of providing home security is taken up in this paper and a methodology is proposed for the same. In most traditional method of providing security to the home, the people tend to use CCTV cameras. Although it’s a passive method of providing security it is highly in use. But, the cameras may be visible to the intruder, thief or robbers. So, cameras are the first units that may be possibly damaged during such bad incidents. Usually most of the intrusion detection systems click the photo of intruders as soon as the human is detected. But, such systems fail to click photos, so that the intruder can be identified (Face View Photo) and visible. In proposed system, a proper illustrative method is proposed so that the intrusion detection is accurate and photos thus captured are clear, so that intruder is clearly visible. The proposed system is designed as a photo frame for providing home security. The system is developed to accept mobile commands. As soon as the intrusion of unauthorized person is detected, an alert message and the identifiable, clear photo (Face view) of intruder will be sent to owner’s/administrator’s mobile. The photo frame owner can also see the video of deployed environment through the camera fitted on the frame.
