Electronic Eye Controlled Security System
Electronic Eye Controlled Security System
Electronic eye is also called magic eye. As the automation is emerging technology these days,
just imagine a door bell that automatically rings when a person visit your home. This also
provides security when any person is trying to enter into your home without your permission.
Electronic eye is the electronic device that continuously watches if anyone is visiting your home.
This article presents the circuit of electronic eye. Before going to know complete details about
this circuit, get an idea about Light Activated Switch Circuit using LDR.
The main principle of the circuit is to ring the door bell when there is any person at the
entrance. Light on the LDR determines whether a person is present or not. When there
is any object at the entrance, LDR is in dark and buzzer starts ringing and the LED
starts glowing.
Circuit Components:

DC 9V battery.
This circuit can be divided into two parts. One is the power supply and the other is logic
circuit. In the power supply 9v supply is converted to the 5v .The logic circuit operates
the buzzer when any shadow falls on it.
Power supply circuit consists of battery, diode, regulators and capacitors. Initially a 9v
battery is connected to the diode. Diode used here is a P-N junction diode of 1N4007
series. In this circuit 1N4007 is connected in the forward bias condition .The main
purpose of the diode in this circuit is to protect the circuit from negative voltages .There
is a chance of connecting battery with reverse polarities which damages the circuit. So
P-N junction diode connected in the forward bias allows the current to flow only in one
direction and thus the circuit can be protected .There is some voltage drop across the
diode. A voltage of 0.7V is dropped across the diode.
A regulator is used for regulating the output voltage of the circuit .The regulator IC used
here is 7805.78 represents the series and 05 represents the output voltage .Thus a
voltage of 5v is produced at the output of the regulator .Two capacitors are used before
and after the regulator .These two capacitors eliminate the ripples .Thus a constant
voltage is produced at the output of the regulator, which is applied to the logic circuit.
