An Overview of IoT Based Smart Home Surveillance and Control System: Challenges and Prospects

Abstract

Security plays an important role in our everyday lives be it in a personal, residential, commercial or enterprise setting. In the traditional home security setting, user can retrieve the video captured from the closed-circuit television (CCTV) when needed. However, user will not be notified when there is intruder. This disadvantage can be overcome by inculcating the idea of Internet of Things (IoT) into home security system. Smart home security system can integrate various types of sensors such as motion sensor, humidity sensor and temperature sensor together with electrical appliances in house such as CCTV camera, lights and fans. Smart home security system is capable to send notification to alert user if detected any house scenario which is abnormal so that user can act immediately upon receiving the notification for appropriate action. This helps to ensure the security of house. There are various home security systems proposed by past researchers. Therefore, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive review on the proposed designs and to analyse and compare the results to determine the challenges and prospect in this field of technology.

A TRIZ Approach for Designing a Smart Lighting and Control System for Classrooms Based on Counter Application with Dual PIR Sensors

“…The idea struck when considering that trigger systems are commonly used in security alarms. Some of the alarm systems are triggered by human movements [ 9 , 10 ]. By avoiding the common method of installing PIR sensors on the ceiling to detect human motion, we use the principle of feedback such as in alarms for human presence detection, by installing a dual PIR sensor in the entrance and exit way of the classroom to detect human movements when entering or leaving the classroom to develop a smart lighting and control system that enables automatic switching on, and off of lighting.…”

“…In the past 30 years, most of the present off-the-shelf systems have utilized passive infra sensors (PIR sensors) to sense human presence to automate the triggering of electrical appliances in a venue [ 7 ]. Numerous research has revolved around the application of PIR sensors with a trigger circuit for switching electrical appliances [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Examples are shown by Mat and Suriza who presented a detailed exploration of the technical aspects of a green technology system designed for classroom application [ 11 ].…”

Transformative Applications of IoT in Diverse Industries: A Mini Review

“…Significant obstacles stand in the way of developing and implementing IoT systems in smart cities. Smart sensors, networking, security and privacy, and big data analytics are a few of them [1][2].…”

“…IoT, or the Internet of Things, refers to the network of interconnected devices that can communicate and exchange data with each other over the internet without requiring human intervention [1]. These devices can range from everyday objects such as household appliances and wearable devices to industrial machinery and infrastructure components.…”

A Raspberry Pi-Powered IoT Smart Farming System for Efficient Water Irrigation and Crop Monitoring

“…The network of physical items, or "things," integrated with sensors, software, and other technologies that allow them to communicate and exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet is known as the Internet of Things (IoT) [7]. These goods can be anything from commonplace things like wearable technology and home appliances to large-scale industrial machines and infrastructure elements [8].…”
