Authors: Alexandru Radovici, Ioana Culic, Maria Tudor – Wyliodrin Bogdan Doinea – Cisco Networking Academy This document describes how to build a Social Alarm Clock by a team of five people: a manager, a product designer, two engineers and a programmer. Introduction We are going to make a smart wake up lamp. You should already …
Above and below are the diagrams of the electronics that will interface the alarm system sensors with the Raspberry Pi. The first diagram is a conventional electronics schematic and the second is how you can build the circuit prototype on a bread board. Â We have shown two identical circuits representing two contacts in your …
The Raspberry Pi is an amazing device. Although not the most powerful mini computer out there, it bolsters a tremendous support community, tons of hardware add-ons and coding libraries to your heart’s desire. The Raspberry Pi also makes an affordable media player but so much more can be done with it. In this post, I’ll …

Wastage of water is quite prominent in urban as well as rural areas and overflowing of water tanks is a major reason for that. This water tank overflow circuit described here starts ringing as soon as the water tank becomes full. Thus, by warning the user, the project avoids the need to check overflow and …
A basic USB camera can be used to detect motion in a room. In the following steps we will show you how you can use Reactive Blocks to program a ready to run Java application that sends SMS when motion is detected. With Reative Blocks you make Java SE applications so the alarm application can …
Traditional wireless CCTV cameras are cheap but anyone with a wireless receiver can view your signal. On the other hand, IP cameras are secure but they can be quite expensive and usually the video quality is poor — unless you go for a really expensive model. Lately I wanted to install a home surveillance system so I …

Hello guys In this instructable i’ll show an alarm clock project based on RaspberryPi and GrovePi+ Starter Kit. Its name is “IT”, that’s the shortening of “It’s Time”. Version instructabled is 1.3, youtube video shows 1.0 . It’s a standard alarm clock that can be configured at your pleasure. Once you have completed this project, …
Thanks to RaspberryPi.org for flagging the work of Gadget Nut, who is definitely a Gadet Master, too. They have been working on the PrivateEyePi project, building a DIY Home alarm system. It is modestly described as a simple system that can link to existing door contacts or alarm sensors, and there is also a Web …

I spotted a post by Lior Hass on Hackaday a little while back where he described his Alarmino project where his alarm system now connects with an Arduino and a custom board to simulate the phone line and interpret Contact-ID protocol.  He could then get the system to SMS him in the case of an alarm.  In …
