Abstract: In this project based on Smart Home Security, we make the home homelier by connecting members of a residence to it by creating a network between the residents and the home. Using the concept of internet of things and networking, we make sure that the people not only lead a more comfortable life, but a more secure one as well. In this paper we take the concept of smart home systems and add additional security features to the concept to make living safe and secure along with comfortable and cozy. Using Arduino and Raspberry Pi, our system alerts the user when an unknown person is detected within the household so that they can take the required steps needed in case it is an unwanted intruder. In the modern, fast paced world we live in, where security threats grow in large numbers each day, the need for home security increases with the same intensity. A smarter, more efficient and a more convenient approach towards home security ensures an increase in the number of people having access to such systems as well as makes sure of a decrease in the number of people having difficulty with confusing and complex security interfaces. This project turns your mundane everyday object into defenders of your home, eliminating the need to bring in any other expensive security devices. Additionally, it also lets you keep a track of your entire household objects in one place.
