Abstract

A security system is one of the most important applications of a smart home that protects our home from thieves or potential risks. However, a traditional home security system usually suffers from high costs or does not satisfy the user’s needs. Therefore, in this research, we design and implement an IoT-based smart home security system, which not only protects our home from unauthorized access but also saves our life from dangerous situations. In our proposed system, biometric recognition based on the combination of fingerprint and face image is used to identify the homeowners who have permission to access the home. The main door will be opened if the input biometric image matches the one stored in the database. Otherwise, the system will raise an alarm with a doorbell and/or send a notification message to the homeowner. Besides, the system also collects environmental data in the home and notifies the homeowner in case of a dangerous situation, e.g. there was a fire or gas leak. The homeowner can monitor and control their home remotely via a friendly Web-based user interface. All activities happening in the home are recorded in a logging system for further analysis.
