The security of a home largely depends on the effectiveness of its door lock system. However, instances of occupants forgetting to lock the door or doubting its status due to time constraints are not uncommon. To address this issue, we propose an innovative android-based application called the door security system, which leverages Internet of Things (IoT) technology to monitor, control, and enhance the security of a house. The system utilizes the MQTT cloud as a communication protocol between the smartphone and the door lock mechanism. The door security system incorporates various sensors to ensure comprehensive monitoring. A Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor is implemented within the door lock to detect any movement near the door, while a touch sensor is installed on the door handle to recognize human interaction. In the event of forced entry, an alarm will promptly ring and send notific.. View More»
