OVERVIEW Problem Solution Constraints Technical Practical System Overview Approach Timeline Progress Q&A [2]

PROBLEM The issue with alarm companies of today is that they overcharge for the service they are offering. In the United States nearly 2 million households are broken into each year [4]. In the United States, only 17% of homes have a home security system [4]. [3]
5
SOLUTION The Home Alarm System is going to change the face of the market by offering an easy, self-install alarm system that offers the same great protection as other companies without the overpriced rates.
6
TECHNICAL CONSTRAINTS Communication Systems The mobile must be able to communicate with at least 4 nodes. Node BatteriesThe battery in each node must provide enough voltage to operate the sensor/switch, microcontroller, and transceiver. Mobile ApplicationThe Android smartphone application must be able to arm, disarm, arm stay, and provide battery life information of each node. Server FunctionThe user must receive a notification within 10 seconds of the alarm being tripped. Node FunctionEach node must be able to communicate with the microprocessor at a distance of 40 feet inside a home.
7
PRACTICAL CONSTRAINTS CostHome Alarm system’s installation and monthly costs for this package must be less than what the competitors offer. ReliabilityThe system must be completely functional in optimal conditions.
8
COST ADT and other big alarm companies offer similar packages for $36.99 a month with a +$99 installation fee [1] The Home Alarm System has NO monthly payments!
9
RELIABILITY Home owner must provide: Accessible wifi 110 VAC
