In our project, we used Real Time Operating System (RTOS) for this project. The software design consist of two tasks with different priority level. The low priority task would check for inputs of the motion sensors and if motion is detected from the sensor, the lower priority task would send data to the queue. The medium priority task would then receive the signals from the queue and generate sound for the speaker based on the value of the light sensor. If the brightness is pretty high, then it the micro-controller would output a song named "Jingle Bell", else micro-controller would output an alarm to the speaker because there maybe thieves inside the house.

The first low priority task would check for the inputs of two motion sensors (This increases the accuracy of the detection). If both sensor sensed a motion in the first task, then it would send some data into the queue to indicate that motion is been detected. The medium priority task would wake up from sleep state because the queue is not empty anymore, this task would check the value on the light sensor to see how bright the room is. If the room is too dark (brightness <20), then there may be a thief inside the house, so an alarm frequency would be sent to the speaker pin. Else, if the value of brightness is pretty bright on the light sensor, just because it's christmas, the micro controller would generate a song called "Jingle Bell" just because it's christmas.

Next, the first motion sensor that we bought online isn't turning off, we couldn't find out why so we bought 5 more motion sensor online just in case.

When we purchased the speaker, the sound wasn't loud enough so we need some device to amplify the signal. So, we spend some time to go to an electronic store to purchase some transistors 2N3904 to create an amplifying circuit and connect that to the speaker. Finally, the sound it generated was a lot louder than before. It would be a lot better to purchase the speaker and 2N3904 together, because a lot of time is being wasted in between because we thought the micro controller could create enough voltage to sound a speaker.

So we have to go online and buy 5 motion sensor because we don't want any defected parts to slow down our progress. The sensors that we bought finally worked, but sometimes it would give a false signal when there's no motion so I'm assuming it needs some time for the motion sensor to stabilize itself.

Project Title: Door Alarm System

Abstract

Our project would use a motion detector and light sensor on the SJOne board to control the output of a speaker. If the someone opens the door during daytime, the speaker would output a song as a welcome. However, if the door opened at night where there’s no light, the speaker would output an alarm because there might be thieves coming in during midnight.

Objectives & Introduction

The objective of this project to create a realizable indoor anti-theft system. The system is able to detect the people's motion by using the motion sensor, and judge the current brightness by using the on-board light sensor.

In order to accomplish the objective, we need to the following things:

  • Modified the Pulse-Width Modulation(PWM) source code to allow the speaker to play a song.
  • Figure out how to amplify the sound signal.
  • Using the ADC code to receive the signal from motion sensor.

In our project, we used Real Time Operating System (RTOS) for this project. The software design consist of two tasks with different priority level. The low priority task would check for inputs of the motion sensors and if motion is detected from the sensor, the lower priority task would send data to the queue. The medium priority task would then receive the signals from the queue and generate sound for the speaker based on the value of the light sensor. If the brightness is pretty high, then it the micro-controller would output a song named "Jingle Bell", else micro-controller would output an alarm to the speaker because there maybe thieves inside the house.

The medium priority task would wake up from sleep state because the queue is not empty anymore, this task would check the value on the light sensor to see how bright the room is. If the room is too dark (brightness <20), then there may be a thief inside the house, so an alarm frequency would be sent to the speaker pin. Else, if the value of brightness is pretty bright on the light sensor, just because it's christmas, the micro controller would generate a song called "Jingle Bell" just because it's christmas.

Testing & Technical Challenges

The biggest challenge we faced we deciding what to purchase for the project. In the first two week of the project, we purchased the speakers and thinking the onboard acceleration sensor would work like the way we want it to (sense motions), but it actually only works if the board is tilted.

So we purchased some 2N3904 transistor and created a signal amplifying circuit and connected that to the speaker. Next, the first motion sensor that we bought online isn't turning off, we couldn't find out why so we bought 5 more motion sensor online just in case. If someone wants to start this project from scratch again, I would highly recommend doing enough research before making a purchase, because there's always not enough materials to work on the project if research are not well done.


My Issue #1: Speaker

When we purchased the speaker, the sound wasn't loud enough so we need some device to amplify the signal. So, we spend some time to go to an electronic store to purchase some transistors 2N3904 to create an amplifying circuit and connect that to the speaker. Finally, the sound it generated was a lot louder than before. It would be a lot better to purchase the speaker and 2N3904 together, because a lot of time is being wasted in between because we thought the micro controller could create enough voltage to sound a speaker.

The second part of our issue is the motion sensor, the first sensor that we bought is not turning off for some reason, in other words, it always senses motion even though nothing is moving in front of the sensor.
