ABSTRACT
As we all know that technology is the key of the change of the world. Here in this
report we are talking mentioning about the change in human lifestyle using the
technology. This report is all about the change of the human lifestyle and making the
life secure as we all are facing the security problems every day.
“HOME AUTOMATION AND SECURITY SYSTEM” is all about how to make
home safe and automatic from unwanted damage or loss caused by different cause
like fire, unknown persons entering in home. In this report we are mentioning how to
save money by saving unwanted wastage of electricity and by protecting our home
solar or rechargeable battery from being overcharged and ultimately to damage.
Every home is provided with the tank to store water but every time we need to check
whether it is full or empty but here we are presenting how to on motor as the water
level goes below the lower level and off the motor as the tank become full with the
water, in doing so we will be able to save not only electricity but also the life of the
motor and in turn money. By, doing so we need not to worry about the water tank and
motor. As we can’t know about the status of the battery weather it is full or not, but
the battery level indicator is the one which helps us to know about the condition of
the battery and makes us to know the conditions whether the battery is full or damage
and so on. It will make us to know when to about the time when to replace the
battery.
Implementation of such automatic microcontroller based systems will make our life
style secure and comfortable.
Hence this report is all about the human comfort and reliability.

1.1: INTRODUCTION OF PROJECT
Home automation is a hot topic, not just among the technologically savvy crowd and
remodeling enthusiasts, but also among increasing numbers of mainstream
homeowners.
Automation is quickly picking up speed as the must-have consumer technology, and
for good reason. From setting the alarm via microcontroller to turning on lights
automatically and turning on the air conditioning as the temperature goes above
normal temperature, setting the alarm as the home is caused by the fire, turning off of
the motor as the water in a tank become full, and turning off of the charging source of
the battery as it gets fully charged, technology bring enhanced convenience, comfort
and safety for consumers where they need it most-at home.
Many homeowners have already taken advantages of this technology, and more are
joining the rank every day. Homeowners who are planning to make the switch to an
automated or smart home should always implement the microcontroller based system
to make the home secure and automated.
With technology evolving at such a rapid pace, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the
possibilities. To avoid feature overload, homeowners should think about what they
want out of their system and how those features will fit into their home, budget and
lifestyle. For example, security is the major concern, a system with automated fire
detector, and unknown person detector and rechargeable battery detector would be
near the top of the list. By thoughtfully creating a must-have list of components, a
homeowner will be able to clearly communicate the vision of a smart home to
professional who can turn it into reality.
This leads us to an important point: Designing and installing a home automation is a
task that’s best left to professionals. Home automation systems can be complex, and
should be installed by a licensed professional who is trained to understand the details
13. 3
of a customized system. By using a professional with expertise in automation,
homeowners will receive a well-installed system, along with personalized attention
and training tailored specially to their needs.
When a homeowner installs a home automation system, a great amount of trust is
placed in the provider’s hands. Not only will a company enable homeowners to easily
control the everyday functions of the home. Such as lighting and temperature but they
will be responsible for ensuring the safety and security of the residents.

1.3 Methodology
During the research related to our project we adopted various kind of research. At
first we search about our project on the world of internet, then we moved to our sir
and the guides who were going to help us throughout our project and consult with
them whether this project is feasible to carried out or not.
After receiving the positive response from our respected guide and teachers, we move
to our work and performed it quite beautifully. Besides all this we refer various
books research articles magazine and various research papers of the different people
around the globe via internet and other means of communication. By implementing
14. 4
all these we carries to the state and the portion that we are asked to perform
something that is really part of human being
1.4 Significance of the project:
This is not a great project but it can affect human life in a great way. It can make a
life beautiful and comfortable. The whole project is concerned with the comfortable
life style of human and it directly related to .As we develop the modules which can
control almost all the electronic an electrical devices used in home automatically.
There is no need of human to save our property and our devices.
Hence, this project is quite useful to the entire human who wants comfortable life
style.
1.5: Proposed project:
The block diagram of the whole project is as shown in the given figure where we
have designed the power supply for the whole project which will provide the
electricity to the circuit. We have interfaced different sensors as specified in the block
diagram which will give the analog as well as the digital input signal to the
microcontroller and depending upon the input signal microcontroller will generate a
output signal to control the corresponding device. The person who can’t understand
the electronic circuit will be able to understand the whole operation with the help of
the message displayed in the LCD display.

empty motor is made to ON and if full motor is made to OFF.
To implement the system using 555 timer and TSOP, this will enable us to
detect any unknown person in home and to make the buzzer to sound and to
make the CCTV on automatically.
To implement the system which will enable us to know the status of different
types of rechargeable battery and perform the required task of OFF and ON
of charger automatically. That is if battery is full then charger is disconnected
and if battery is empty then charger is connected. Doing this will make the life
of battery a bit long.

2.1: System Specification:
The system specification shows the description of the function and the performance
of system. Our project “Home Automation and Security System” has different
objectives we believe that our system has immense scope. The project we have taken
can be used as a reference to implemented in any high security system not only in
case of home but also in case of the banks and different buildings.
2.2 Assumptions:
Certain assumptions to be considered to implement our project are listed below:
The water level will be detected automatically
If any unknown person enters home CCTV will take a video which will be
recorded
As the home will be caught by fire water will be available at home via
internally provided water supply
2.3 Major constraints:
During the project phase we encountered various problems and obstacle.
Beside our plan and schedule the working progress was not smooth. We have
to manage odd hours to meet deadlines avoiding load shedding and limited
time frame. Within a limited time frame we had started the project from the
initial research phase acquiring the knowledge about all the devices and
components that we have about to use and other phase of project including
coding, testing, debugging, documentation and implementation. We got
comfort when our college provide a great support in providing electricity and
various devices and components needed by our project
Hence we utilized the available resources, devices, time and work to finish the
project within the schedule.

3.1.2 Diodes
A diode is a dispositive made of semiconductor which has two terminals or electrodes
that can act like an on off switch. When the diode is on it acts as a short circuit and
passes all current. When it is “off”, it behaves like an open circuit and passes no
current. The two terminals are different and are marked as plus and minus. If the
polarity is opposite (reverse bias), it turns “off”. A diode is simply a PN junction with
the following characteristics.
Under forward bias, it needs a small voltage to conduct. This voltage drop is
maintained during conduction.
The maximum forward current is limited by heat-dissipation ability of the
diode. Usually it is 1000mA.
There is a small reverse current
27. 17
Fig 3.2.1: Diode
3.1.2.1 Applications of diodes
Rectifier diodes are typically used for power supply applications. Within the
power supply, you will see diodes as element that converts AC power to DC
power.
Switching diodes have lower power ratings then rectifier diodes, but can
function better in high frequency application and in clipping and clamping
application, that deals with short duration pulse waveform.
Zener diodes, a special kind of diode that can recover from breakdown caused
when the reverse-bias voltage exceeds the diode breakdown voltage. These
diodes are commonly used as voltage-level regulators and protectors against
high voltage surges.
3.1.3 OP-amp (operational amplifier)
The term amplifier or “OP-amp” refers to a class of high-gain DC coupled amplifiers
with two inputs and a single output. The modern integrated circuit version is typified
by a famous 741 Op-amp. Some of the general characteristics of IC version are:
High gain, on the order of a million
High input impedance, low output impedance
Used with split supply, usually +/- 15V
28. 18
Used with feedback, with gain determined by the feedback network
Fig 3.1.3: op-amp 741
The Op-amp was designed to perform mathematical operations. Although now
superseded by the digital computer, Op-amps are a common feature of modern analog
electronics. The op amp is constructed from several transistor stages, which
commonly include a differential input stage, an intermediate-gain stage and push-pull
output stage. The differential amplifier consists of matched pair of bipolar transistor
or FETs. The push-pull amplifier transmits a large current to the load and hence has
small output impedance. The Op-amp is a linear amplifier with Vout/Vin. The DC
open loop voltage gain of a typical Op-amp is 103 to 106. The gain is so large the
most often feedback is used to obtained a specific transfer function and control the
stability. A popular IC version of Op-amp is IC741, it is available in 8-pin dual, in-
line package (DIP).
3.1.4 LED
29. 19
Fig 3.1.4: LEDs
A LED (light emitting diode) is essentially a PN junction diode. When carriers are
injected across a forward-biased junction, it emits incoherent light. Most of the
commercial LEDs are realized using a highly doped n and p junction. The light
emitting phenomenon use the recombination within the PN junction instead of
thermal radiation, there for LEDS are free of waste and wear and can be expected to
have a long life time. By controlling the forward current, the radiant flux of the LED
can be easily controlled. The response time of the LED is very high (a few hundred
nanoseconds) and can be pulsed at greater forward currents, to obtained high
radiation peaks. The resin packaging of LEDs allow for superb mechanical integrity
and can withstand dropping, vibration and shock. These semiconductor devices can
be mounted in any position.
3.1.5 Relay
30. 20
Fig 3.1.5: Relay
Relays are components which allow low-power circuit to switch a relatively high
current on and off, or to control signals that must be electrically isolated from the
controlling circuit itself. To make a relay operate, you have to pass a suitable pull-in
and holding current (DC) through its energizing coil. And generally relay coils are
designed to operate from a particular supply voltage often 12V or 5V. The coil has
resistance which will draw the right pull-in and holding currents when it is connected
to the supply voltage. So the basic idea is to choose a relay with a coil designed to
operate from the supply voltage you are using for your control circuit, and then
provide a suitable relay driver circuit so that your low power circuitry can control the
current through the relay coil. Typically this will be somewhere between 25mA and
70mA.
3.1.6 IR sensor
IR sensor uses an infrared light source, which offers long-term stability, low
maintenance and high reliability. The IR sensor family is intended to monitor
suspended solids in four predetermined nominal ranges.
IR 100 Sensor-Range 0-200mg/1
31. 21
IR40 Sensor-Range 0-1500mg/1
IR15 Sensor- range 0-10,000mg/1
IR8 Sensor-range 0-30000mg/1
Fig 3.1.6:IR sensor
No internal adjustment is possible, but measurement outside these ranges is
sometimes possible and may be determined by experimentation. All range statements
based on a solids present on a typical sewage treatment works, and although they are
useful as guidance, the ranges will be affected by the nature of the solid being
monitored. Sensor uses the light absorption principle, with the light source an infrared
LED operating at 880nm. In simple terms, the sensor detects solids by comparing the
amount of light emitted by the LED with the amount of light received by the photo
diode. The sensor has been designed to monitor suspended solids and sludge blankets
throughout the treatment process
3.1.7 TSOP
The TSOP 18.. Series are miniaturized receiver for infrared remote control system.
Pin diode and preamplifier are assembled on lead frame; the epoxy package is
designed as IR filter the demodulated output signal can directly be decoded by a
32. 22
microprocessor. TSOP 18..is a special remote control receiver series supporting all
major translations codes.
Fig 3.1.7: TSOP
TSOP 1838 sense 38 KHz square wave light intensity, and there are other frequencies
available. This prevents different remote controlled devices to interfere with each
other as they work on different frequencies. As TSOP sense 38 KHz modulated light,
it turns output low. It is because of the output stage, which is transistor switch. It will
keep output low for some time and then again rise high. It not just sense 38 KHz but
also determine if it continuous 38 KHz signal, or a burst of square waves. It rejects
continuous 38 KHz like an ambient light
3.1.8 Bridge rectifier
33. 23
Fig 3.1.8:Bridge Rectifier
A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement to achieve full
wave rectification. This is a widely used configuration, both with individual diodes
wired as shown and with single component bridges where the diode bridge is wired
internally
for both positive and negative swings of the transformer, there is a forward path
through the diode bridge. Both conduction paths cause current to flow in the same
direction through the load resistor, accomplishing full-wave rectification. While one
set of diode is forward biased the other set is reverse biased and effectively eliminated
from circuit
3.1.9: Wireless camera:
Camera is audio video capturing equipment that essentially helps to monitor the
changes taking place in the environment. Camera can have different resolutions. The

or electronic. Type uses of buzzers and beepers include alarms, timers and
confirmation of user input such as a mouse click keystroke.
Electronic buzzer: A piezoelectric element may be driven by an oscillating
electronic circuit or other audio signal source. Sounds commonly used to indicate that
a button has been pressed are a click, a ring or a beep.

vital role. We can control any device automatically by using embedded system or by
using microcontroller.
This is a small chip which can perform various task related to the embedded system.
Such systems are generally designed to perform any specific task. In our project to
control various devices of the home embedded system plays a main role. In our
project we are using PIC 16F877A as a main controller which can be interfaced with
large varieties of devices quite easily. Such system can be used in:
Robotics
Industrial automation
In automatic moving cars and even in automatic flying objects.

4.2.1 Main Board:
We have designed a main board in such a way that it can take both analog and digital
input and can process it. The outputs generated by microcontroller are passed through
the Darlington pair IC. The main board is operated with 12 volt dc supply. We have
provided enough LED in our main board which enable us to know the proper
functioning of the given board.

4.2.3 Battery level indicator
Normally, in mobile phones the battery level is shown in dot or bar from .this lets you
easily recognize the battery level .here we present a circuit that lets you know the
battery level of a device from the number of LEDs that are glowing. It uses ten LEDs
in all .so three LEDs glow it indicates the capacity of 30 percent .Unlike in mobile
phones where the battery level l indicator function is integrated with other functions
here only one comparator IC (LM3917) does it all.
The LM3914 uses ten comparators, which are internally assembled in the voltage
divider network used on the current division rule so it divides the battery level into
ten parts.
The circuit derives the power supply for its operation from the supply for its operation
from the battery of the device itself .it uses ten LEDs wired in a 10 dot mode .The use
of different colored LEDs make it easier to recognize the voltage level on the basis of
the calibration mode .Red LEDs indicate battery capacity less than 40 percent
.Orange indicate battery capacity of 40 to less than 70 percent and green led indicate
43. 33
battery capacity of 70 to under 100 percent The brightness of the LEDs can be
adjusted by varying the value of preset VR2 between pins 6 and 7.
Diode D1 prevents the circuit from reverse polarity battery connection. The tenth
LED glows only when the battery capacity is full, i.e. the battery is fully charged.
When the battery is fully charged, relay driver transistor T1conducts to energize relay
RL1. This stops the charging through normally open (N/O) contacts of relay RL1.
For calibration connect 15V variable, regulated power supply and initially set it at
3V. Slowly adjust VR1 until LED1 glows. Now, increase the input voltage to 15V in
steps of 1.2V until the corresponding LED (LED2 through LED10) lights up.
Now the circuit is ready to show any voltage value with respect to the maximum
voltage. As the number of LEDs is ten, we can easily consider one LED for 10
percent of the maximum voltage. Connect the voltage from any battery to be tested at
the input probes of the circuit. By examine the number of LEDs glowing you can
easily know the status of the battery. Suppose five LEDs are glowing. In this case, the
battery capacity is 50 to 59 percent of its maximum value.

4.2.4 Water level indicator
To detect the water level, we use voltage divider dc biasing. In which R1 resistor is
connected with base terminal and VCC. Another wire of base is left on the tank. If the
water is below that wire then the value of resistor R2 is very high (infinite).Due to the
high value of R2, voltage at the base-emitter is 0v.The transistor acts as open circuit
no current is flow in the circuit. When the water is at the level of wire then resistor R2
has certain value i.e. resistance of water. The voltage at the base-emitter is equal to
the 0.7v.Then transistor acts as short circuit. The current flow through the circuit.
For calculation,
Vbe=(R2/(R1+R2))*Vcc
Where,
Vbe=voltage at the base emitter
R1 and R2=resistors
Vcc=supply voltage
45. 35
AS same thing can be done with the NOT gate IC so we have implemented the NOT
gate IC to perform the same task as the input terminal of not gate lies below the water
level input of the not gate
will receive the zero logic and generate the output as the high. Hence by doing this
we can easily detect the level of the water and can control the motor accordingly the
level of the water.
The complete PCB circuit diagram and the art word is as shown in the figure.

4.2.5 Unknown person detector
We have used the 555 timer to generate a sign square wave of 38KHz such that by
this the signal generate from the given transmitter will be not affected by the ambient
light as well. We have designed a receiver by using the TSOP 1838 which is capable
of receiving only the 38 KHz signal. Hence, when any obstacle will cross the line of
sight from the transmitter and the receiver it will generate output signal an according
to the I/O signal microcontroller will gives output. The circuit diagram of the
transmitter and the receiver are as shown in the figure:

5.1Problem Faced
To reach the summit, one cannot bypass the uphill on its way. Similarly, to complete
our project, we also faced the inevitable problems that us to push hard for grabbing
the aim we had set.
First and foremost, we were not hugely familiar with microcontroller, its coding and
its applications. To work on a project based on microcontroller, a master command on
its use was a most. Our continuous efforts on widening the window of information on
microcontroller solved this issue.
Another hurdle part in our project is the perfect design of the PCB board when we are
designing the different module to performing the different tasks. Hence design of
such module was the another major problem we faced during our project. Being such
problems but we were self –motivated and we work even during the late night to
make the perfect and fine PCB board which is the main part of the succession of our
project.
There were times when all our connections were as per requirements bur no operation
was accomplished. The IR sensor and LCD performed on previous day betrayed us
next day but we were always motivated to achieve what we targeted for and e didn’t
compromise to debug it ever in late nights.
5.2 Limitation:
We believe no machine is perfectly efficient and our system is no expectation to it.
There is certain identified unidentified limitation exiting in our system. Hardware and
software and environmental inefficiencies had forced us to summarize our limitation
as follows:
It do not identify unknown person instead it identify only obstacles which
may be animals or anything like that.
52. 42
Fire can’t be detected before it just stated but it detected only temperate so
anything which may produce heat near sensor will be identified as fire.
After the exercitation of the every output we have to reset it to operate it
again with the initial message at the LCD display.
We tried really hard to make our project fine and perfect but still there are few many
limitations. Which are listed below::
The wireless camera used in our project cannot record the picture and video.
Audio cannot be transmitted
The IR sensor works only in the range of 10m.
We have programmed whole the project on the basis of polling instead of
interrupt.
In many cases it does not function automatically hence we need to reset the
whole project continuously.
5.3 Further enhancement:
Our system including the limitation has a bright side to explore .we can make the
security system of the home highly secure by implementing the technology of the
image processing and the scanner of our eye or fingerprint and other at the gate way
to the home.
By implementing the special type of the mechanical switch to detect the level of the
water this can be used accurately and for the longer time as it is a mechanical part.
Such system gives the high accuracy then the system that we have used.
We can use other highly advanced embedded system to control the devices of the
home with the higher accuracy and can use the concept of the interrupt to make the
same project far more good.
53. 43
This system is not only important for the home, but can be implemented in the
security system of the bank, corporate buildings, offices, colleges, schools,
government buildings and in many more. Hence, we can extend it to any limit as per
the requirement and the need of any field.
5.4 Conclusion
The minor project of third year BE Electronics and communication was completed
with great devotion and dedication. The project has helped us gain a better
perspective on various aspects related to our course of study as well as practical
knowledge of electronic components. On the phase of project our stressful time was
made comfort by the support from our seniors, teachers and friends. Hence, we are
finally here with the complete project on time.
The main goal of this project on title “The Home Automation and Security system”
is nothing but a step to make the human life comfortable. So, we did our best
throughout the whole project and make our project fine and accurate. By completing
the whole project on time with the great success we came to believe that winner do
not do different things but they do the things quite differently. This project becomes
very much fruitful for us to learn the concept related to the hardware and software
which we think and believe that will be a valuable part in our professional carrier in
the field of engineering.
Hence, it becomes a great experience for us to perform and compile the project in
time. It really makes us to feel like an engineer and today we can feel proud for what
we are and for what we can do.
