Laser-Based Security System Using Arduino For Agriculture Applications

Abstract

India's primary and most important industry
has always been agriculture, which has
dominated the country's economy. We must
make sure that farmers have access to the
resources they require because they are the
backbone of any country. Conventional
methods such as scarecrows are still used in
agricultural fields today to keep animals and
birds away from growing crops because of the
numerous shortcomings in these ideas,
improvising agricultural security has grown
to be a major issue in the contemporary
world. Thus, the primary objective of this
work is to propose a system that can detect
trespassers, monitor any suspicious activity,
and then alert the owner of the field. It serves
as an adaptable system that provides farmers
with a practical means of ensuring the overall
security of their farmlands against any
attacks or trespassing activities. This project
makes use of an Arduino Nano, a laser light, a
buzzer, an LDR that only emits straight lines,
a 180°-sensing PIR sensor, and simple
software. With the aid of these devices, we
can easily and quickly set up a security alarm
for trespassers anywhere. This paper is not
restricted to any particular area or structure;
it can be completed anywhere. A multitude of
valuable objects, such as jewels, diamonds,
priceless antiques in museums, and many
more, are also protected by an invisible laser
beam. The concept of electric fencing was
created to keep the animals out of the farms.
