Microcontroller Home-Based Security Reporting System using GPS-enabled Technology

Abstract

This study addresses the rising threat of theft and burglary by proposing a microcontroller-based security system utilizing GPS technology for enhanced home safety. Comprising a microcontroller unit, Neo-6M GPS module, and SIM800L communication module, the system enables real-time breach tracking and reporting with a user-friendly single-button activation. It ensures swift reporting of precise coordinates and nearby locations to a designated recipient without compromising security. Affordability, adaptability, and effectiveness distinguish this solution, overcoming existing security limitations. The results demonstrate accurate location tracking, rapid message transmission, and timely alerts. Future recommendations include solar panel integration and alternative coordinate conversion methods. In essence, this GPS-based Arduino microcontroller system strengthens home security, ensuring prompt response and
