Smart Home Security System

The Home Attender is a scalable security system which integrates various components into a more complete product. It will include components as accelerometers, a thermal and optical camera module, networking, a storage for recorded data, and a phone application to alert the user of criminal activity and fires.  Benefits of the Home Attender include convenience, allowing the owner to setup an alert system and receive information about dangers from wherever they are. The system will use thermal cameras for increased accuracy in detecting intruders and fires, greatly reducing the chance of a false alarm. The Home Attender is also designed to be a scalable system and can be extended to protect large facilities such as farms or shopping centers. The scalability factor will also allow additional security features to be developed added to the Home Attender in the future.
