An Intelligent Security System for Commercial Establishments Based on the Internet of Things (IoT)

Abstract

The use of many different sorts of security systems in our day-to-day lives has suddenly skyrocketed at a rate that is exponentially higher than before. Everyone living in this day and age is aware of the critical need of implementing sufficient safety precautions in settings such as workplaces, organizations, and bank vaults. In the recent years, companies have become increasingly interested in installing surveillance cameras in an effort to create workplaces that are less prone to danger. However, in order for this technology to function well, a person has to continually watch it in order to discover any problems that may appear in the image that is being caught by the camera. The fundamental objective of this research is to develop methods that are capable of improving the performance of traditional security systems. The platform-based security system that is based on the internet of things (IoT) has the potential to communicate in real time with the device. Components of the system include the speech sensor/microphone, motion/activity sensor, LTE/Wi-Fi module, and camera. Each of these sensors is interfaced with the central processing unit (CPU), which is the most important part of the system. This entire financial system will employ the Internet of Things (IoT) in real time, which will make it possible for mobile devices and computers to remotely monitor the activities that are taking place at the location where the IoT device is situated. This will make it possible for the system to be more efficient. Additionally, it will record all of these activities and save them to the cloud storage account associated with the user. The property of the user or the customer is afforded an additional level of protection thanks to the Internet of Things-based security system's contribution. Security systems are designed to carry out particular tasks in response to a breach in a protected area when the breach occurs. In this paper, a notification will be issued to the concerned individual as a warning. At that time, the user will be able to take the right actions because they will have received the warning. The most significant advantage of applying this approach is that it enables one to exercise round-the-clock remote control over their home. One is able to monitor, get notifications, and notify in the case of an emergency from anywhere in the world using a mobile application that is connected to the cloud round-the-clock when utilizing a smart locker that is based on the Internet of Things (IoT). To be more specific, our goal is to develop an Internet of Things–based wireless smart security system that is not only lightweight and inexpensive but also extendable and adaptive. This system will make use of the integration of various advanced technologies in order to function properly. It is conceivable to use a combination of various technologies in a way that is synergistic to construct a smart security system, which would allow for the remote operation of a system in a house or company (for instance, to lock or unlock a system with the help of an SMS or app). This would be achievable from a remote location. The entire system was designed with consideration given to the many different types of door locks and lockers that are used in homes and businesses so as to provide these establishments with the maximum possible level of safety. Installation may thus be made in a way that is uncomplicated and efficient thanks to this. In addition to this, our technology will function as a technique for preventing theft or burglary, recognizing it when it occurs, and countering its effects.
