Abstract

Insecurity is a major concern in homes and human inhabited facilities today. The need to fortify this facility and homes is key to solve the insecurity issues. This work is aimed at designing and implementing a home security system that utilizes a TF-Luna Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) sensor incorporated with an Arduino Uno R3 microcontroller. The main objective of this system is to enhance perimeter security and intrusion detection in various applications such as home security, industrial facilities, and critical infrastructure protection. The Integrated TF-Luna LiDAR sensor is known for two essential indices such as precision and reliability and the microcontroller unit creates a non-contact detection and ranging mechanism capable of accurately measuring object invasion distances. The Arduino Uno R3 microcontroller platform processes the collected LiDAR sensed data in real time and uses advanced algorithms for target detection, tracking, and anomaly identification. The system's key components include an intuitive user interface for control and monitoring, alarm generation, and data logging. The system provides real-time alerts and notifications to security personnel and home users through various communication channels. After been tested, evaluated and validated, it demonstrates its ability to detect and respond to intrusions accurately, even in adverse environmental conditions. The integration of a TF-Luna LiDAR sensor with a microcontroller offers a cost-effective and versatile solution for improving security and surveillance performance. This project showcases a promising approach to enhancing security systems by incorporating LiDAR technology, providing a foundation for further research and deployment in real-world security applications and ecosystem.
