Abstract:- Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real world objects (things) through the
Internet [1]. When it comes to our house, this concept can be aptly incorporated to make it smarter, safer and automated. Thi s IoT project

raises an alarm optionally. Internet of Things (IoT) conceptualizes the idea of remotely connecting and monitoring real world objects
(things) through the Internet [1]. When it comes to our house, this concept can be aptly incorporated to make it smarter, safe r and automated.
This IoT project focuses on building a smart wireless home security system which sends alerts to the owner by usin g Internet in case of any
trespass and raises an alarm optionally. The main concern of the world today is the security. Sensor based smart home securit y system and
the home automation system is methodical and high technology systems which connect most of the wireless systems and ensure the real time
operations and also indicates the threat to the house. The main idea for the use of home security system is for the comfortab le living and it
has also changed since the past decade as wireless technologies digital, vision are implemented. In the present world Internet plays a major
role in every field, so the idea of integrating sensors technology along with an IoT environment could be helpful to resolve the security
issues and the major problems of society to a very great extent. The drawbacks of existing technologies would be mainly cost and range. In
this paper a perfect implementation and the complete design of sensor based smart security system with an IoT environment is been
presented, which for sure resolves various security issues like fire detection in the places, unauthorized intruder entry and many. Therefore
by the use of it continuous monitoring of the home or apartment or any locations can be possible. The system is much cost eff ective, has low
power consumption and much reliable compared to the existing one.

Keywords: Arduino Uno’s board, IoT, Sensors.

III. PROPOSED SYSTEM

Many of the sensors are interfaced with the Arduino board.

Arduino board has about 14 digital and 6 analog pins. IR
Fig1:IoTBased Smart Security System and Fire sensors are the digital sensors. LPG (MQ6) and
water sensors are analog sensors.
