Shantanu Bhadoria

Shantanu Bhadoria is an avid traveler and the author of several popular open source projects in Perl, Python, Golang, and Node.js, including many IoT projects. When in Singapore, he works on paging and building control systems for skyscrapers and large campuses in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Macau. He has authored and contributed to public projects dealing with control over gyroscopes, accelerometers, magnetometers, altimeters, PWM generators, and other sensors and controllers, as well as sensor fusion algorithms such as Kalman filters. Shantanu's work in IoT and other fields can be accessed on his GitHub account with the name shantanubhadoria. He is also the author of Device::SMBus, a popular Perl library used to control devices over the I2C bus.

The architecture of the security system

In the following section, we will explain how the security system works and how it will be operated. The hardware connections of the system are as follows:

  • The button (works as the doorbell of the system)
  • A relay module that controls the lock or unlocks the door
  • Connects the web camera that will detect the person that wants to enter the house
  • Speakers that will notify the messages about the system
  • When the button is pressed, it will request the image taken by the camera
  • The Raspberry Pi 3 is connected to the internet by Ethernet interface

The following diagram shows the elements of the system:
