ABSTRACT :
A laser alarm system operates by projecting a beam of invisible
laser light across a doorway or window opening. When the light
is broken, it activates a buzzer or alarm. The principles are very
similar to those of lower tech burglar alarms. A laser alarm
requires only slightly more sophisticated electronics and can be
put together by anyone with a soldering gun and a knack for
tinkering with basic circuits and transistors.
AIM :
To make and study the functions of a Laser Security System.
COMPONENTS REQUIRED :
1. LDR
2. RESISTOR (10k ohm)
3. BUZZER
4. LASER
5. BC547 transistor
6. 9V battery
7. Connecting wires
8. Battery clip
WORKING OF THE CIRCUIT :
1. The working of the circuit is simply based on a voltage divider
circuit. As the light intensity on LDR increases its resistance
decreases, so when laser light is falling on LDR, its resistance
goes very low hence the 9volt supply gets connected to the
ground with the help of a 10K resistor, and in this way base of
the transistor receives low value or in other words transistor is
OFF.
2. Now as soon as light intensity decreases or it laser gets
interrupted by someone, LDR resistance increases which in turn
gives a high value to the base of the transistor, and hence
transistor turns on, and finally, the buzzer sounds up. In this
way, our project is working and providing us with a security
system using a la

IMPLEMENTATION OF CIRCUIT :
RESULT :
1. When the laser beam falling over the LDR is interrupted by the
object in the field of laser net. hence the LDR develops an
output voltage and the alarm rings showing the sign of any
intruders. The Laser Security System has been successfully
designed and developed. The buzzer is turned on as the laser
beam falling on the LDR is interrupted. The experimental model
was made according to the circuit diagram and the result was as
expected.
2. The LDR has to be placed in dark place or inside a case so that
the other source of light except the laser beam doesn't affect the
LDR. This helps the circuit to work faster and properly.
CONCLUSION :
Laser security systems are a high tech technology that used to be
a part of home security only available to the wealthy. It is
manually switch dependent sensors and a basic alarm unit. Laser
security system a person moves in front of the sensor, that
person triggers the system's alarm by cutting the laser. And the
alarm signals the security monitoring company and local law
enforcement. The basic alarm unit will also sound a loud alarm.
Both analysis and experiment indicate that rather stringent
requirements must be met in order to obtain efficient optical
heterodyne detection. At some wavelengths it may provide the
only means of overcoming noise and detect noise problems. The
operation of LDR depends upon the photoconductivity process.
