Introduction: Safety Sensor
The main idea: The main idea of this project is to avoid invasions in your house, so you can enjoy life safer. You can install this anywhere you want like a garage, a room, a locker etc.
How does it work? Basically, when you open the door the buzzer will start, it works because there is a sensor and when there is nothing blocking the sensor up until 35cm it is programmed to start buzzing. But, when you close the door the buzzer will stop.
Step 1: What Will You Need:
A sensor, A breadboard, Jumper wires, Buzzer, Arduino board, Button, Resister 10K, A computer with Arduino install and a USB cable
Step 1- First of all, you need to get all your materials to start this project.
Step 2: Building
Then, you get the breadboard and the Arduino board and places the jumper wires, the button, sensor, resister 10k and the button. It should look like the photo
Observation- If you press the button it will stop buzzing for 10 seconds
Step 3: Plugging
Step 3- Plug the one side of the USB cable to the Arduino board and the other side to your computer
Step 4: Code
Open Arduino in your computer and put this code in it: Step 4- Open Arduino in your computer and put this code in it:
