Overview

TripSense is a custom-designed IoT security system that uses a wide-area laser tripwire to detect intrusions. By combining a focused blue LED with a convex lens, the system creates a 3-meter-long detection beam covering a broad 78 cm² area—making it significantly harder to bypass than traditional point-based tripwires.

Key Features

🔑 Key Features

  • Wide Detection Range: Detects motion across a 3-meter span with a broader coverage area.

  • IoT-Enabled: Built using an Arduino Nano, LDR sensor, and HC-05 Bluetooth module for remote alerts.

  • Real-Time Notifications: Sends instant Bluetooth alerts when breached.

  • Emergency Stop: Manual reset button to quickly disable the alarm.

  • Expandable: Camera module integration in progress to capture intruder snapshots.

Mission

To create a smart, affordable, and scalable home security system that leverages IoT and sensor technology to detect intrusions in real time, enhancing safety and peace of mind for users.

Impact

TripSense enhances home security by making intrusion detection more reliable and harder to bypass. Its wide detection area, real-time alerts, and scalable design offer a smarter alternative to traditional laser alarms, especially useful for homes, offices, and restricted zones.
