The system is composed by a main circuit (the arduino shield) installed in an hidden place and an i2c connected “remote control panel” near the main house door, offering LCD, capacitive buttons and RFID recognition.
The whole system may be managed and configured from the webserver; webpages are published in iphone/android webapp format. When the system is alarmed, it sends mail and SMS to the owner.
It also connects to house domotic system (e.g. close rolling shutters when it’s activated), control IP cams, send push notification, detect humidity and temperature.
