A. Introduction
Do you have any precautionary devices like locks, cameras or an alarm to protect your
houses? Do you feel secured anytime? Nowadays, it is important to have these but it will cost a
lot if you buy in the market. So, this is the story of a guy named Ryeland. He is only 13 years old
when his parents died because of a car accident. His grandmother adopt and treat him like her
own child. Since all back then, he didn’t ask any support and grew up as kind, independent, and
hardworking teenager. He works as a waiter in the evening and looked for another part time job
just to support his own studies. He studied Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering in
Cum Laude of their batch. He immediately got hired in an Electronic Company. But in a short
period of time, the owner died and it became bankrupt. Instead of looking for another job, he
think of another way to survive. He started to try his luck on buying materials for an alarm
system. After many tries and rejections, he finally made it and looked for a person who could
finance his alarm system. He called it Z-Diode, a photodiode based alarm that can be used to
give a warning sign when someone passes through your protected area. After 4 years, he has now

This will determine if the product will make a big impact in introducing a brand-
new product. If this product will be successful in the market it will determine the factors
that has to be changed, such as price, quality and marketing strategies and factors that
might affect the product such as competitors, threats and the supply and demand of the
Technical Aspect
The main component that is needed to create the Photodiode Based Alarm System
are photodiodes and Infrared LED. These are the components that will serve as the
sensors of the Alarm System. Buzzers will be used to signal that the alarm has been set
off, this can be easily bought in electronics shop. The lightbulb will be used to signal as
well, this will indicate that the alarm system has been set off. This can be bought in

C. Project Timetable
A. Industry Background
The Photodiode was originally used in converting sunlight to electricity. But in this
project it will be used as a sensor that will kept on standby and when the beam path breaks the
alarm will be activated. So, basically it was came from a simple project where there is only one
photodiode in parallel to the IR LED and once the invisible laser light breaks the alarm will be
triggered. But of course as part of our Work Immersion, we need to develop or innovate a new
product. Then, we came up to this kind of idea, we will make an IR-based alarm circuit where
there will be 3 pairs of photodiode in parallel to the IR light and have a separate resistor. So that
it will become impossible for an intruder/burglar to pass through your protected area. We also
install a timer so that you can set the alarm that will last within 5-30 seconds and changing the
light from white to red to become more visible for the homeowners. This capstone project will be
a great help to the homeowners to keep them feel secured and protected all the time as well as

D. Marketing Program
1. Facebook Page
Social media sites is one of the most powerful platform to connect with other people
through the use of internet. In fact, millions of people searching the internet everyday, looking
for products and services because it is more convinient rather than purchasing products in a real
store like malls. For a company that just starting their business it can be a great help because of
some reasons. First, you can have it on a low cost and without spending money on renting a
place where you can sell your product. Second, it can reach a lot of customer both locally and
internally. Third, you can manage your time very efficient while you are in house doing other the
chores.
2. Print Media (Tarpaulin)
Traditional type of advertising is one of the simplest but an effective way of marketing
and advertising the product. These tarpaulins comes in various price and sizes which is cheaper
rather than TV advertising or billboards. It only needs a good choice of location where it can
catch attention for a wide range of audience. Because some areas don’t have access to the
internet and too far from the town. Last, it’s flexibility because it can last for a months and even
years.
