When detected near the restricted area, an alarm is raised with the help of the buzzer, which will alert the security people and force the trespasser to run away.

We make use of a piezo buzzer, which is readily available and cost-effective. A piezo buzzer is built of a piezo-electric material. The working of the piezo buzzer is based on the inverse of the principle of piezo electricity. The principle of piezo electricity states that whenever mechanical pressure is applied on piezo electric material, it generates electricity. And piezo buzzers follow ...
