About your project
Project name: Home security system using bluetooth
Description: I would like to make a security system which checks the person's name at the entrance of a house/room using his/her bluetooth ID of their phones and if their ID is registered they would be allowed to enter the house/room and the owner would be notified via text/mail. If the person is not registered, their photo/video would be sent to the owner, and they may choose to give them a one time access/ register them or deny their entrance. Also if someone without access enters, the owner is notified with a live feed.
Timeline
Provide a development timeline with a milestone week and any pre-work. (A realistic timeline is critical to our selection process.)
Date | Milestone |
---|---|
Week 1 | Understand the RISC-V architecture |
Week 2 | Understanding the linux kernel implementation in this project |
Week 3 and 4 | Talking with mentors |
Week 5-9 | Start implementation of the project |
Week 10-12 | Finishing up and getting feedback from the mentors |
The work for week 5-9 are as follows:
Bluetooth device trigerred action Setting up communication between the board and user's phone Working on a locking system which opens and closes on command Working on setting up a live video feed from the board to the user's phone
Experience and approach
I am currently pursuing Electronics and Instrumentation. I have experience using the arduino. I am experienced in Python and C. I have written code for pi-pi communication using python on my PC. The only thing I need help with is with developing linux kernels, as this board is a RISC-V based board unlike other ARM based boards. I need the guidance of the mentors, and will be learning about it online on my own as well.
Benefit
If completed succesfully, this might provide a base for a more complex and effective security system at an affordable price.
Conclusion
I would really like to make this project, and with your organisation's help, my project could be more than I envisioned.
