Glass Break Detection System (GBDS) is an alarm system that detects the frequency of breaking glass Consist of a central unit and multiple detection units System communicates wirelessly among all units
Current glass break alarms operate: as stand alone units hardwired to a central unit High cost for complicated designs
Use low power wireless technology Central unit communicates to all detection units Simplified design to lower overall cost
Central Unit Detection Unit
NameDescription RangeThe detection unit must detect glass breaking up to 25 feet. AccuracyThe detection unit must detect the noise frequency emitted by the breaking of glass to prevent false alarms from normal household sounds. Supply VoltageThe detection units must be battery powered. The central unit must be wall powered. Transmission DistanceCentral and detection units must be able to wirelessly communicate within a 33 to 246-ft range. DisplayThe central unit must have a display screen that is easily read.
Economic The GDBS must be less than $200
Manufacturability The GBDS must be simple in its design
