CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM
This chapter includes the introduction, statement of the
problem, scope and limitation, and significance of the study.
INTRODUCTION
Security is one of the most important factors today. Technology
develops day by day in the world. As the world becomes integrated
with technology, the security of people’s wellbeing and safety of the
establishments, household and possessions can become an issue.
This research project intends to provide an innovation on the
laser type security alarm system. The Laser Light Alarm Security
System is a device that provides warning when there is unauthorized
presence or intrusion within premises. The main component of this
project is the LDR and laser which compose the trigger part of the
______________________________________________________________________
system. LDR is a component which has a resistance that alters when
there is change in light intensity. The feature has been applicable to
light sensing circuits.
This project has played a great role in household perimeters as
it provides comfort and safety measures. Innovations have emerged
and was introduced to the market, however, the said innovations were
applicable only to high security places such as museums, banks, and
big companies. The circuit and the components are also complicated
and pretty much racking in terms of creating or buying it.
The researchers have visualized a community where safety and
security is never a problem. The researchers have realized the
importance of this aspect which drives them to conceptualize this
study. This Laser Security System is very useful in places and
establishments prone to theft cases. The project are easy to install
and functional at both inside as well as outside houses. The output
can be used as an effective perimeter alarm system for individual
properties and establishments. The circuit is at a size unnoticeable at

______________________________________________________________________
first glance. Outside, it can easily be hidden behind shrubs or plants
without causing any damage. They consume less power when
compared to the laser system existing in the market as the whole,
which is expensive.
The laser systems can be installed at homes either by
individuals with knowledge of installation or by technicians. By
technological innovations cost of the security systems has been cut
to a large extent. So, making laser systems as one of affordable
security system options is safe and cost efficient. It has ability to
work continuously; it is not only human but also a small animal or any
other movable objects. Its alarming Sound does not stop until
somebody stops it. Now we can use this system in a wide range of
area.
In this study, the researcher aims to simplify and minimize the
circuits and its components for household advantages. A great
example of this is the innovations on computers, the first versions
were huge and complex (Super Computer) and is not portable for
______________________________________________________________________
commercial use. As the technology becomes move advanced, they
have developed things for more convenient and accessible ways like
netbooks, laptops, tablet pc’s and the like.
The researchers would like to reinvent the same concept but
with further advantages to be more applicable in ordinary
households. This aims to give practicality and comfort in a way that
smaller houses and other consumers can enjoy its benefits.

______________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
In this research project, the researchers will be creating a Laser
Light Security Alarm System. The researchers would like to create
modifications in the diagram, The researchers would like to:
1. Describe the Laser Light Alarm Security System and its component
parts,
2. Create and recreate the Laser Light Alarm Security System,
3. Test the efficiency of the project.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study will be beneficial significantly to the students of
MCTI, especially the BTTE Department. This will be of great help to
the future innovations and projects they may be required from their
course. This paper and its content may serve as a guide to future
innovators and developer students of the institution in creating
related projects.
______________________________________________________________________
This project will be of importance and significance to all people,
household and establishments. It can help prevent the chances of
crime cases which are likely to happen at night and even at day time.
This is also applicable to schools, especially in MCTI’s premises,
laboratories, facilities within the perimeter of the school.

______________________________________________________________________
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Security and comfort is an aspect that man seeks in living.
Ensurement of safety for family, possessions and wellbeing is
significant. There is an inseparable relationship between man and
their belongings as foretold by Alvin Toffler in his prediction of the
future in his book “FUTURE SHOCK”. Man gives importance to the
welfare of his family and protection from possible instances of
accidents and crime. With this matter, man has created and innovated
further security and safety.
In the past few years, the crimes and cases within Koronadal
has been gradually arising. The cases of theft has reached 26.82%,
robbery cases with 27.42%, crime vs. property with the percentage of
25.02%, car napping with the percentage of 2.89%, and crime vs.
persons 18.18 %( PNP annual report, 2015). The alarming percentages

______________________________________________________________________
of crimes have triggered the researchers to create this research
project.
In this chapter, the researchers have made available
compilations of information on laser and its significance to the
innovations of security. The following accounts will be for greater
attainment of understanding about laser and security systems.
Studies about how these technologies have come into reality and the
efforts of humanity to elevate the innovations of the past generations
up to the present era.
What is Laser?
Since the beginning, light has played a great role in the life of
humanity. With mans curiosity, they have harnessed light and created
things out of the ordinary. Light can be seen fluorescent,
incandescent, LED lights and laser. Now, most people have heard of
the word “laser”, but how many actually know what a laser really is
______________________________________________________________________
and how it works? The term "laser" originated as an acronym for
"Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
The light from a laser is very different from ordinary light that is
produced by a torch. It is different in three ways. Firstly, it is more
powerful. Lasers can therefore be used to cut very hard objects.
Secondly, laser light spreads out much less than ordinary light. This
mean, the laser can be used by surveyors to draw straight lines and
measure distances. Lastly, laser light contains light of only one color,
or wavelength whereas ordinary light is a mixture of many colors.
Since the discovery of laser, it has been experimented with to
explore various purposes and harness the benefits of mans effort.
When it was first invented, it was proved to be a difficult tool to use.
Some people thought that the new invention would be of no real value
to science or engineering. Today, the laser has a hundreds, if not
thousands of uses.
Nowadays, it is useful in many fields. For example, in medicine,
it is use as an instrument in delicate surgery, in communications; it
proves to be useful with the help of optical fibers to carry telephone

______________________________________________________________________
conversations. The information is put into the fiber through laser
beams. Also, surveyors have benefited with the discovery of laser, as
it produces a near perfect line, it is used for accurate alignment.
The military has also found many uses for lasers like the
“marked target seeker” which sense laser pointed at the target and
makes a direct hit. The industry of automotive uses this as heaters of
parts of gear systems of cars. It was also used to measure length of
distances in space “courtesy of NASA”, to know the distance of
planets and stars. There is also entertainment use for lasers like
holography by splitting laser beams to create images for effects in
films and videos.
At the present, it is integrated with more uses, one of which is
applicable in security systems. Laser becomes a revolutionary
discovery and still has much potential for possible use in the future.
______________________________________________________________________
HISTORY
During the 1900’s, Albert Einstein first introduced the theoretical
pillar for laser through his re-derivation of Planck’s Law of Radiation.
Rudolf W. Ladenburg confirmed the existence of the emission and
negative absorption. In 1939, Valentin A. Fabrikant proposed that this
emission can also be amplified in short waves. With the discovery of
hydrogen spectra, Willis E. Lamb, and R.C. Retherford accidentally
performed the first demonstration of stimulated emission.
In 1951, Joseph Weber submitted a paper on using stimulated
emissions to make a microwave amplifier to the Institute of Radio
Engineers Vacuum Tube Research Conference at Ottawa. In 1953,
Charles Hard Townes and graduate students James P. Gordon and
Herbert J. Zeiger produced the first microwave amplifier, a device
operating on similar principles to the laser, but amplifying microwave
radiation rather than infrared or visible radiation. Townes's maser was
incapable of continuous output. Meanwhile, in the Soviet Union,
Nikolay Basov and Aleksandr Prokhorov were independently working
on the quantum oscillator and solved the problem of continuous-

______________________________________________________________________
output systems by using more than two energy levels. These gain
media could release stimulated emissions between an excited state
and a lower excited state, not the ground state, facilitating the
maintenance of a population inversion. In 1955, Prokhorov and Basov
suggested optical pumping of a multi-level system as a method for
obtaining the population inversion, later a main method of laser
pumping.
In 1964 Charles H. Townes, Nikolay Basov, and Aleksandr
Prokhorov shared the Nobel Prize in Physics, "for fundamental work
in the field of quantum electronics, which has led to the construction
of oscillators and amplifiers based on the maser–laser principle".
Simultaneously, at Columbia University, graduate student
Gordon Gould and Townes met and talked about radiated emission as
general subject. Afterwards Gould noted his ideas for a "laser",
including using an open resonator. At a conference in 1959, Gordon
Gould published the term “LASER” in the paper “The LASER”.
` On May 16, 1960, Theodore H. Maiman operated the first
functioning laser at Hughes Research Laboratories, Malibu,

______________________________________________________________________
California, ahead of several research teams, including those of
Townes, at Columbia University, Arthur Schawlow, at Bell Labs, and
Gould, at the TRG (Technical Research Group) company. Later that
year, the Iranian physicist Ali Javan, and William R. Bennett, and
Donald Herriott, constructed the first gas laser, using helium and
neon that was capable of continuous operation in the infrared (U.S.
Patent 3,149,290); later, Javan received the Albert Einstein Award in
1993. Basov and Javan proposed the semiconductor laser diode
concept. In 1962, Robert N. Hall demonstrated the first laser diode
device. Later that year, Nick Holonyak, Jr. demonstrated the first
semiconductor laser with a visible emission. In 1970, ZhoresAlferov,
in the USSR, and Izuo Hayashi and Morton Panish of Bell Telephone
Laboratories also independently developed room-temperature,
continual-operation diode lasers, using the heterojunction structure.
Since then, the laser has played a great role in various fields of study.
______________________________________________________________________
TYPES OF LASER
There are many types of lasers available for research, medical,
industrial, and commercial uses. Lasers are often described by the
kind of lasing medium they use - solid state, gas, excimer, dye, or
semiconductor.
Solid state lasers Solid-state lasers are lasers based on solid-
state gain media such as crystals or glasses doped with rare
earth or transition metal ions, or semiconductor lasers.
Gas lasers are a laser in which an electric current is discharged
through a gas to produce coherent light. The gas laser was the first
continuous-light laser and the first laser to operate on the principle of
converting electrical energy to a laser light output. It emits energy in
the far-infrared, 10.6 micrometers, and are used for cutting hard
materials.
Excimer lasers (the name is derived from the
terms excited and dimers) use reactive gases such as chlorine and
fluorine mixed with inert gases such as argon, krypton, or xenon.

______________________________________________________________________
When electrically stimulated, dimer is produced and when lased,
produces light in the ultraviolet range.
Dye lasers use complex organic dyes in liquid solution or suspension
as lasing media. They are tunable over a broad range of wavelengths.
Semiconductor lasers, sometimes called diode lasers, are not solid-
state lasers. These electronic devices are generally very small and
use low power. They may be built into larger arrays for example, the
writing source in some laser printers or compact disk players.
LASER POINTER
A laser pointer is a cheap, hand-held laser that is used for
different purposes--ufor example, during presentations to point out a
particular area of the slide or in classrooms to point out a particular
section/formula to students. The laser pointer’s history is closely
intermingled with that of laser, as the development of the laser laid
the foundation for the creation of laser pointer.
With the passage of time, the laser has became accessible for
commercial use and has became cheaper that they could be

______________________________________________________________________
employed everyday devices, thus giving birth to laser pointer. Laser
pointer produces light that were much powerful than initial ones.
Laser pointers are fitted with external optics or lenses to focus the
light better.
Security system
The most basic definition of any security system is found in its
name. It is literally a means or method by which something is secured
through a system of interworking components and devices.
A security alarm is a system designed to detect intrusion or
unauthorized entry into a building or other area. Security alarms are
used in residential, commercial, industrial, and military properties for
protection against burglary (theft) or property damage, as well as
personal protection against intruders. Car alarms likewise help
protect vehicles and their contents. Prisons also use security
systems for control of inmates. Museums use security system to
ensure safety of valuable artifacts and historical items. Banks such as

______________________________________________________________________
the pentagon has been integrated with high security system for
money security and other valuable items. Government establishment
such Malacañang Palace and the Coconut Palace use security system
for safety of confidential government files and other documents.
Innovation of security system
Home security systems are devices that sense trespasser.
While people have an idea in their head of what a security system
should be, the concept has existed for centuries. Every
generation of mankind has needed protection of some form or
another and they couldn’t always stay awake with a weapon to do
the job themselves.
Not many people consider the history of home security
systems but these historical devices helped man learn how to
defend his home. These tactics and methods worked for centuries
and may have helped mans ancestors survive.
Ancient Surveillance
______________________________________________________________________
The present generation has the entire new tech thanks to the
efforts of our ancestors, though we may or not even acknowledge
their help to give us what we have today. Ancient man has many
ideas that have solved problems they encountered. They create
one solution, they solve more than one problem and the only
method they had was curiosity. They helped resolve the setbacks
that man has difficulty to cope with for generations. Man has
cleverly acquired daily things they use to gave birth to various
forms of security systems.
An example of this is the “baolis”. A stepwell developed in
india in the third century. These wells became incredibly
important to ancient Indian culture and many have been
decorated with intrinsic detail. However, one of the more
fascinating uses of a baoli comes from a Muslim temple
in Lucknow, India. What makes this baoli particularly interesting
is its dual use as a well and surveillance system.
In the history of home security, few developments are more
important than the creation of the lock. While other civilizations

______________________________________________________________________
had created locks long before, the Romans took the concept to a
whole new level. Along with door locks, excavations of Roman
ruins have found strongboxes and safety deposit boxes with
tumbler locks and padlocks. The earliest known examples of such
locks date back over 2,000 years.
Medieval Security
Humans have been worrying about defending their homes
since the advent of agriculture. The Romans, Greeks, Chinese,
and Egyptians each had their own approach to home security but
few took it to the same level that Europeans did during the Dark
Ages.
Following the fall of Rome, Europe quickly fell into chaos as
new rulers fought for their share of the once great empire. To
defend their new kingdoms, these rulers would build massive
fortifications, known as castles, which could withstand attack for
months, even years, on end. Some of the more innovative
developments created by these paranoid Europeans include

______________________________________________________________________
towers designed for defense and double-defended gates that
could trap intruders inside. Of course, security measures during
medieval times were a little more vicious than modern methods
but they were effective. Castles protected kings and peasants
alike for over 800 years but they proved little use against newer
technologies, such as cannons.
Modern security
The modern security system is a relatively recent
development in human history but the first designs go back
further than most people realize. Augustus Pope was the first
person who created a modernized security system. But his alarm
have problem, because as the door closes the alarm would stop.
Pope sold his patent to Edwin Holmes who is now known as “The
Father of the Modern Security Industry”. Pope died shortly after
selling his patent but he left an indelible mark on home security.

______________________________________________________________________
Security Revolution
The modern burglar alarm was just one half of the modern
home security system; the revolution had yet to be
monitored. E.A. Calahan was responsible for the first monitored
fire and burglar alarms in 1871. His system used telegraph signals
and was ahead of its time, going so far as to develop the central
monitoring station to keep track of alarms. Calahan was a prolific
inventor during his life time. His creations include the stock
ticker, ticker tape, and the multiplex telegraph system. Today,
security monitoring is accomplished through landline phone,
cellular, or broadband internet connections. Though the
technology may have changed, Calahan’s basic model for central
monitoring stations is still in place today.
Some home security devices are strange and a little
humorous. It’s easy to imagine people thinking the same thing
of Marie Brown’s visual security system when it debuted in 1966.
To be fair, Brown’s invention was a little unwieldy and expensive.
However, she did create the first CCTV surveillance system.

______________________________________________________________________
Brown’s version used a series of peep holes and a mechanized
track to keep the camera hidden. Though the device proved to be
commercially unsuccessful, Brown was widely recognized for her
achievement. She lived most of her life in Queens, New York,
where she died in 1999 at the age of 76. Since then, security
system has been improved, innovated and still gradually
changing in accordance to mans’ need.

______________________________________________________________________
The Device Components and their Function
Below are the components of the device and their specific
functions. There are three major components featured, namely Laser,
LDR or light dependent Resistor and Piezoelectric Buzzer.
Laser is a handheld device emitting a narrow low powered beam
of light. The laser serves as the trigger to the LDR; which in return
triggers the buzzer when the connection of the laser and the LDR is
intercepted.
LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), a light sensing device that
varies its resistance to the amount light and darkness it receives.
When the light received increases, its resistance decreases and when
the light decreases, the resistance increases.
Buzzer - A buzzer or beeper is an audio signaling device, it could
be mechanical, electromechanical, or piezoelectric. Mostly, uses
of buzzers and beepers include alarm devices, timers, and
confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or keystroke. When
the connection between the laser and LDR is interrupted the buzzer is
triggered and emits a high pitched siren.

______________________________________________________________________
Circuit Variables
Ohm’s Law is the formula, describing the interrelationship
between resistance, current and voltage in an electrical circuit. It is
the fundamental law which states that the voltage across a resistance
is directly proportional to the current flowing through it. The constant
of proportionality is known as the resistance. This concept can be
generalized to include the relationship between the voltage and
current in all situations, including alternating voltages and currents.
It is conceptualized by Georg Simon Ohm.
Resistance is the opposition to current flow in various degrees.
The practical unit of resistance is called the ohm. A resistor on one
ohm is physically very large but provides only small resistance to
current flow. The unit of resistance is represented by the Greek letter
omega. Resistance can be attained when voltage is divided by the
current. Current is attained when voltage is divided by resistance,
while voltage is the result of current multiplied by resistance. This is
the interrelation of the formula of the Ohms law.

______________________________________________________________________
Current
Represented by the letter I in the formula of Ohms Law, it is the
flow or rate of electric charge. This flowing electric charge is carried
by moving electrons in a metallic conductor such as resistors and
transistors as an example. The unit of current is ampere; it is named
after a French mathematician, Andre Marie Ampere. It is measured
using a device called ammeter. The conventional symbol (I) originates
from the French phrase “intensite de courant” meaning current
intensity.
Voltage
Also known as electric potential difference, denoted simply as V.
it is the difference in electric potential energy between two points per
unit electric charge namely positive and negative. The voltage
between two points is equal to the work done. Volt meter is the
instrument used to measure voltage between two points in a circuit.
The volt or V is the derived unit for voltage. It is named in the honor of
the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta who invented the voltaic file,
possible the first chemical battery.

______________________________________________________________________
AC and DC current
The abbreviation AC and DC means alternating and direct
current. Direct current is the unidirectional flow electric charge. These
type of current is commonly produced by sources such as batteries
and thermocouples solar cells. Direct current mat flow in a conductor
such as a wire, but can also flow through semiconductors, insulators,
or even through a vacuum as in electron or ion beams. The electric
charge flows in a constant direction distinguishing it from alternating
current or AC. A term formerly used for direct current was galvanic
current.
AC current is the movement of electric charge periodically
reverses direction. The usual wave form on an AC power circuit is the
sine wave.

Chapter III
Methodology
The researchers used experimentation method of research. They
would like to create a project of Laser Light Security Alarm System.
They will have to undergo to an actual testing of the components and
materials needed.
Data Gathering Process
As the researchers go on with the said project, they have to
meet different people and read different books in order to formulate
and make ideas about the research. They have met with Mr.
Normandy Elisan, their electronic adviser. Textbooks;
The Researcher’s think of an innovation on how to protect the
properties, establishments and as well as the safety of the people.

______________________________________________________________________
That is the main reason why the researchers came up with the idea of
innovating the laser light security alarm system. This concept is
actually present in the market but we are making it lesser in cost.
Instrumentation
In the testing and experimentation, the following materials and
components were used:
1. Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) –
is a light sensing device that
lowers its resistance when receiving light and gets higher
resistance when it is dark.
2. Laser- is a device that produces a
narrow and powerful beam of light
that has many special uses in

______________________________________________________________________
medicine, industry etc. It produces light to the LDR that when it
is being interrupt the device will alarm.
3. Resistor – a component that is
used to resist the flow of current
through the circuit and therefore
limits the amount of current that
could pass through a component.
4. Capacitor – a component which stores a
static electricity. It restores the amount of
current in the circuit.

______________________________________________________________________
5. Transistor – it controls the flow of current
to a specific component.
6. IC- in transistor form. It functions as the
voltage regulator in the circuit.
7. Light Emitting Diode – this project uses
one color of LED, white. This component
indicates (if it is lightning) that the LDR
doesn’t receive any light from the laser
therefore there is an intruder.

______________________________________________________________________
8. Matrix Circuit Board - this is a type of
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) which contains
holes for the easier placing of components.
In this project, we used a 2*3 Matrix Board.
9. Power supply -220 volts AC- step down to 6
volts AC. Provides current to the circuit.
10. Rectifier Diode- converts AC to DC
Current.
______________________________________________________________________
11. Buzzer- provides sound as an
indicator that there is an intruder.
12. Switch- control power of the circuit.
Used to cut the flow of current.
13. Relay- functions as the “self-
holding” component of the circuit.

______________________________________________________________________
Other Materials Used:
1. Soldering Iron- one of the most important materials in the
making of the project. It is used to connect all the components
by melting the solder.
2. Soldering Pump- used to remove soldering lead from the circuit
board.
3. Soldering Lead- a material that melts using a soldering iron. It is
used to connect the components.
4. Screwdriver- used to tighten or loosen screw.
5. Wires- a component used to connect parts.

2. Connecting Parts and Soldering
- After placing the components, connect the components
using the soldering iron and soldering lead.
3. Testing
- Test the device if it is functioning. Use 6V power supply.
- The LED light and the buzzer should function, this
means that the device is functioning.

______________________________________________________________________
Chapter IV
Data Presentation and Analysis
This chapter will explain how the device works. It will determine
and explain how each component function in the circuit for deeper
understanding of the operation of the device.
Device Testing and Analysis
As the researchers test the device, an input of 220v AC is
supplied into the transformer. The transformer then regulates the
input to 6v AC (step down process) and then goes into the bridge type
diode. The diode rectifies the AC to DC and then continues to the
filter capacitor, which filters the current flow. The current flow
continues to the IC regulator producing a constant 5v output. The
resistor then limits the current supply going to the LED to 3v DC
output; the LED which is parallel to the buzzer receiving 5v and is
series to the LDR.

______________________________________________________________________
Case 1:
After the Researchers assembled the device, it is now ready for
testing. As the researchers connect the device to its power supply,
the device works well, but when the laser light is cut off the device
will alarm and when the intruder goes, the connection of the Laser
and the LDR is returned, the alarm will stop. The researchers analyzed
that there is a missing components which will help to self-hold the
alarm. So, the researchers added the relay which functions as the
self-holding component to prolong the alarm.
Case 2:
After consulting the researcher’s adviser, relay was added to the
circuit and was tested. The researchers tested the device; however
the placement of the relay is wrong. The LED indicator is on and the
buzzer functions well, the diagnose trouble is that the buzzer does not
self hold and turns off when the laser is reconnected with the LDR.
