Aim
The aim of the project is to monitor the luggage from theft.
Problem statement
tracking devices are being used for many purposes; mainly to monitor the movements of people, vehicles, and assets. Features such as real-time tracking, route history, geofence zones and event alerts allow users to provide personal safety measures for family members and enhance vehicle security.
Material used
Input: IR proximity Sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Sensor Board
Output: Buzzer
Battery: Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
IR PROXIMITY SENSOR
The function of IR PROXIMITY sensor is to detect the object and send the signal to the Brain unit (TinkerSpace board).
BUZZER
The function of the Buzzer is to turn on when there is a theft attempt.
TinkerSpace Sensor Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor IR Proximity Sensors and control the Buzzer
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case – 1: When someone takes the luggage from its place, the IR proximitysensor (input) turns OFF and sends the signal 0 to the TinkerSpace sensorboard (brain). The sensor board turns ON the buzzer (output).
Case – 2: When you keep the luggage in its place, the IR proximity sensor turns ON. Hence the sensor board turns OFF the buzzer.
IR proximity sensor OFF —> Buzzer ON
IR proximity sensor ON —> Buzzer OFF
Circuit Design (DesignSpace)
Step 1: Connect IR PROXIMITY SENSOR to input
Step 2: Connect BUZZER to output 1
Step 3: Select RIVERSE MODE (R) in Sensor board
Step 4: Connect supply and test project.
