LASER SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM

1. Targeted Customers and Strategies for attracting customers.

Nowadays, it is useful in many fields. For example, in medicine, it is use as an

instrument in delicate surgery, in communications; it proves to be useful with the
help of optical fibers to carry telephone conversations. The information is put into
the fiber through laser beams. Also, surveyors have benefited with the discovery of
laser, as it produces a near perfect line, it is used for accurate alignment.

The military has also found many uses for lasers like the “marked target seeker”
which sense laser pointed at the target and makes a direct hit. The industry of
automotive uses this as heaters of parts of gear systems of cars. It was also used to
measure length of distances in space “courtesy of NASA”, to know the distance of
planets and stars. There is also entertainment use for lasers like holography by
splitting laser beams to create images for effects in films and videos.

At the present, it is integrated with more uses, one of which is applicable in security
systems. Laser becomes a revolutionary discovery and still has much potential for
possible use in the future.

2. Details about your product/service and the process of production. Develop flow
process chart as needed to demonstrate the method analysis. Alternatives
available for your product/service.

Procedure:
1. Slotting
- Placing of components in it’s appropriate positions according to the
schematic diagram.
2. Connecting Parts and Soldering
- After placing the components, connect the components using the soldering
iron and soldering lead.
3. Testing
- Test the device if it is functioning. Use 6V power supply.
- The LED light and the buzzer should function, this means that the device is
functioning.
Data Presentation and Analysis
This chapter will explain how the device works. It will determine and explain how
each component function in the circuit for deeper understanding of the operation of
the device.

Device Testing and Analysis

As the researchers test the device, an input of 220v AC is supplied into the
transformer. The transformer then regulates the input to 6v AC (step down process)
and then goes into the bridge type diode. The diode rectifies the AC to DC and then
continues to the filter capacitor, which filters the current flow. The current flow
continues to the IC regulator producing a constant 5v output. The resistor then limits
the current supply going to the LED to 3v DC output; the LED which is parallel to the
buzzer receiving 5v and is series to the LDR.
Case 1:
After the Researchers assembled the device, it is now ready for testing. As
the researchers connect the device to its power supply, the device works well, but
when the laser light is cut off the device will alarm and when the intruder goes, the
connection of the Laser and the LDR is returned, the alarm will stop. The researchers
analyzed that there is a missing components which will help to self-hold the alarm.
So, the researchers added the relay which functions as the self-holding component
to prolong the alarm.
Case 2:
After consulting the researcher’s adviser, relay was added to the circuit and
was tested. The researchers tested the device; however the placement of the relay is
wrong. The LED indicator is on and the buzzer functions well, the diagnose trouble is
that the buzzer does not self hold and turns off when the laser is reconnected with
the LDR.
