IoT Based Anti-Theft Detection Using ESP32-Cam Module

Abstract

The proposed system is an IoT-Based Smart Anti-Theft Detection and Alert System utilizing the ESP32- CAM module. This system is designed to secure homes during the owner's absence by monitoring unauthorized movements across the floor using embedded pressure or vibration, and its sensors. When the system detects movement, the ESP32-CAM captures images or videos of the area and transmits them via Wi-Fi to the homeowner's email or an IoT dashboard. This real-time alert mechanism enables immediate action to mitigate and this also provides the range to potential threats. The system's compact and cost-effective design, coupled with the integrated camera and Wi-Fi capabilities of the ESP32- CAM, ensures seamless monitoring. Additional features, such as cloud storage, night vision, and mobile app integration, further enhance its usability. This smart anti-theft solution provides a reliable, scalable, and efficient method to safeguard homes against unauthorized access.
