INTRODUCTION
 Security is essential in today's world to prevent theft and intrusion in homes, offices, and other important places.
 When an object interrupts the laser beam, the resistance of the LDR changes, triggering an alarm to alert the user.
 This project focuses on designing a simple, cost-effective, and efficient security system using laser and LDR technology.
 A laser alarm system works by continuously projecting a laser beam onto a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR).
PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
 Security threats such as theft, unauthorized access, and intrusion are increasing, making it essential to have reliable security
systems in place.
 Traditional security systems, like CCTV cameras and motion detectors, can be expensive, require high maintenance, and may
not provide real-time intrusion alerts.
 Many alarm systems rely on motion sensors that can be triggered by false alarms due to environmental factors like wind, pets,
or lighting changes.
 There is a need for a simple, cost-effective, and efficient security system that provides instant alerts upon detecting
unauthorized entry.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
This project focuses on designing and developing a laser-based security alarm system that detects unauthorized access using a
laser and a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR). The system works by continuously monitoring a specific area through a laser beam
projected onto the LDR. Any interruption in the laser beam—such as when an object or person passes through—causes a change
in the LDR’s resistance. This change is detected and used to trigger an alarm, alerting users of a possible intrusion. The goal is to
create a low-cost, efficient, and easy-to-install security solution that can be effectively used in homes, offices, and other restricted
areas

OBJECTIVES
 To select suitable and affordable components such as a laser, LDR, and buzzer to build a cost-effective and energy-efficient
security system.
 To design and construct a functional circuit that uses a laser and LDR to detect any interruption in the beam.
 To test the system to ensure real-time detection and immediate alarm activation when an intrusion occurs.
 To improve the system for better reliability and enable future integration with microcontrollers and IoT for remote
monitoring.

METHODOLOGY
•Select Affordable Components
Choose laser, LDR, buzzer, power supply, and other basic parts.
•Build the Circuit
Connect the laser to point at the LDR. Wire the buzzer to sound when the beam is blocked.
•Test the System
Break the laser beam and check if the buzzer activates correctly.
•Improve and Finalize
Adjust alignment, improve sensitivity, and make it more reliable. Add features if needed.
