Sensors and Controls @ DILC

From Iskomunidad

Description

a cost-effective, robust, integrated multi-trigger security and alert system using off-the-shelf or recycled hardware and sensors and open-source software technologies for messaging, video streaming and recording, machine vision, video analytics, thermal and power monitoring and control. It provides multi-channel feedback (Twitter, Email, SMS, etc).

Trigger Events

  • heat (aircon not working, fire)
  • smoke (smoke detector linked to online alarm system)
  • motion (person entering/leaving building or room)
  • sound (fans, batteries failing, alarm of non-networked motion or thermal sensors)
  • power outage



alpha version of the "big plan" for smoke and heat sensors

Output

  • SMS
  • email
  • video recording
  • log recording
  • alarm (sound, light)
  • Tweet
  • phone dialling



Specs

IP camera, POE (Power Over Ethernet), direct-to-NAS recording (AFP, SAMBA, or NFS), inputs for PIR sensors, Infra Red light for night vision, mechanical IR-Cut Filter Switch (basic surveillance functions incorporated into the camera; camera sends stream when preset event occurs; system send SMS/email), NAS (www.nas4free.org - ZSF file system 4 TB RAID Z2)




Smoke and Temp Module

This module monitors room temperature independent of on-board temperature sensors (also monitored) in our servers. It is especially useful in keeping optimal temperature for DILC's data center. Cooling the room too much is a waste of energy. Temperature readings are occasionally verified using 3rd-party thermal instruments.



Controller:

Gizduino X (see manual)


Sensors:

Arduino micro for aircon control
temp: LM 35. See this

Proximity Sensor via Ultrasonic Sonar Module

This is an Arduino micro-based Proximity Sensor through the integration of Ultrasonic Sonar module. With this, one can easily monitor if there's someone near or around a specific area, say, room, door, gate.


I. OBJECTIVES

  • To make an Arduino based Proximity sensor via Ultrasonic Sonar module
  • To simulate effectiveness by varying distances


II. MATERIALS & COMPONENTS

  • Arduino micro
  • Ultrasonic Sonar Module (US-100)
  • Jumper wires
  • 8 (Light Emitting Diodes) LEDs
  • 8 220K ohms Resistors
  • Printed Circuit Board (PCB)
  • Buzzer
