This document proposes a prison security system project that uses various sensors and hardware components. The 4-member student team aims to provide prisoner information and safety alerts to a control room. The system would use a microcontroller, fingerprint scanner, pressure sensor, thermistor, GSM module, and door lock motor. It would verify visitors, detect fires or metal, and send alerts. The budget is estimated at 14,800 NPR. Work completed includes familiarizing with components, and problems encountering include GSM interfacing and developing the database.

3. INTRODUCTION
Modern prison idea introduced by Jeremy
Bentham in London.
GSM module , Pressure sensor , fire and metal
detector based system.
Provides information to Control Room.

4. OBJECTIVES
To provide information regarding prisoner.
To ensure the safety of officials.
To notify Control Room about incident
occurring in the prison.

5. FEATURES
Official and prisoner safety.
Can be re-modeled using different techniques
for large scale.
Can alert Control Room if any incident
happens.
Automatic door lock system.

6. SYSTEM REQUIREMENT
1.Software requirement
1.1 Atmel Studio
 Integrated development platform for
developing AVR microcontroller.
1.2 Proteus
Software developed to design, test and
simulate the work.

7. 2.Hardware Requirement
2.1 Atmega16 Microcontroller
 Low power consumption device with 131
powerful instruction.
2.2 Pressure sensor(piezoelectric)
 to sense the force exerted on a surface per
unit area .
 express that force in the strength of an
electric signal.

8. 2.Hardware requirement(contd…)
2.3 Thermistor Sensor
 resistor whose resistance is dependent
on temperature.
 widely used as inrush current limiter,
temperature sensor
2.4 GSM Module
 used to establish communication between a
computer and a GSM-GPRS system.
 enables higher data transmission rate.

9. 2.Hardware requirement(contd…)
2.5 Finger Print scanner
 Automated method of verifying a match between two
human fingerprints.
 forms of biometrics used to identify individuals
and verify their identity
2.6 DC Motor
 Machines that converts direct current electrical power
into mechanical power.
 Internal mechanism, either electromechanical or
electronic
 Produces rotary motion.
