Smart Gesture-Based Home Security System using GSM Technology

Electronics & Communication Engineering

The Smart Gesture-Based Home Security System using GSM Technology is designed to provide an advanced, reliable, and accessible solution for modern home protection. This system integrates conventional security sensors with gesture recognition technology to enhance both functionality and user interaction. It primarily focuses on assisting individuals with speech and hearing impairments by enabling communication through hand gestures. The system utilizes sensors such as Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors, door sensors, and fire detection modules to continuously monitor the home environment. These components are interfaced with a microcontroller, which processes real-time data and detects abnormal activities like unauthorized entry or fire hazards. Upon detection, a GSM module is used to send immediate alert messages to the registered user, ensuring quick response and improved safety. In addition to sensor-based monitoring, the system incorporates a vision-based gesture recognition module powered by machine learning techniques. Through an Android application, users can perform predefined hand gestures that are recognized by the system to trigger emergency alerts or control security functions. The proposed system is cost-effective, easy to implement, and highly efficient in real-time applications. By combining GSM communication with intelligent gesture recognition, it offers a smart, user-friendly, and inclusive approach to home security, making it suitable for modern residential environments.
