Infrared Security Alarm System

Infrared Security Alarm System

Infrared Security Alarm System is the most sophisticated of all security alarm systems. It detects motions or movements of an infrared producing source, which is usually the human body. All things (be it living or not) emit infrared radiation. Infrared radiation can not be seen by the human eyes but can be perceived through electronic devices designed for detecting infrared radiation.

In an Infrared Security Alarm System, infrared detecting devices are placed strategically and inconspicuously on a room or hallway. These devices send out infrared beams through the room or hallway. The infrared beams are sent out in layers. The upper most of these layers goes about over sixty feet straight and goes thirty-five feet sideways. The center layer of the infrared beams spreads in the room midway while the lower most layers sweeps the area near the detector.

Each of these infrared detecting devices calculates the infrared temperature of area the beam lands on. If there is a sudden change of temperature the infrared alarm system will then analyze the change in temperature if it is enough to trigger an alarm. For example if you walk in front of a painting (your body temperature differs from the painting), the infrared alarm system will then detect a violation of the temperature and then will eventually set off an alarm.

Infrared alarm systems do not trigger an alarm if the room warms up and cools down slowly. Infrared alarm systems have a built in microchip that enables the infrared alarm system to adjust itself for slow and regular temperature variations, so that the infrared alarm system will not be set off by a change of climate.

The sensors of the infrared alarm systems cannot detect thru walls and windows because it will only calculate the infrared temperature on the first thing or object the beam lands. Most of these infrared detecting sensors are small and inconspicuous.

The only setback with infrared alarm system is that this system is very expensive. A single infrared sensor device can not protect the whole house. You will need lots of infrared sensors to protect the whole house. If you want to be more protected have one infrared sensor device in every room of the house. The ideal location of infrared sensor devices is on the ceiling so that it would have a full three hundred sixty degree look on the room.

If you have a pet on your household, there is now an infrared alarm system that features “Pet Immune Motion Sensors”. These highly advance systems will not set off even if your pet roams around the house. The infrared sensor devices of these systems will memorize the weight of your pet’s weight.

Having a well designed infrared system is a good way of protecting your house or establishment.

Barking Dog Security Alarm System

Summary: These dogs sound real and nasty. Man, even cats and other dogs, will scamper away after hearing the barking dog alarm system

Thieves and burglars are getting smarter, if not better. Indeed, they do. Recent studies show that most burglary happens when people are away from homes, regardless whether alarm systems are installed or not. Why, because the alarm won’t be alarming anyone within the hearing vicinity of the alarm. Especially true on houses that have expansive lots and neighbors with glass sealed windows.

The newest alarm innovation is the barking dog alarm system. Even the most seasoned or jaded housebreaker will have second thoughts on hearing the nastiest growl and bark of an angry dog, especially if the dog that emits the sounds is real large.

One particular barking dog alarm system, the Rex Plus Electronic Barking Dog Alarm emulates the convincing bark of a true to life angry German Shepherd. And in case you don’t know, these canine breed are used as police dogs for their fierceness and resilience in facing intruders. For an added effect, the closer the intruder attempt to go the more heated and threatening the bark will become, just exactly like the real ones.

With microwave technology, this electronic barking dog alarm system is able to "see' through walls and actually determines when someone is approaching. The system identifies how close the intruder is. And this barking dog alarm system is surprisingly cheap at $79.95.

Barking dog alarm systems are slowly becoming a favorite burglar alarm over the standard wail and siren. So, when it becomes rather common, the learning burglar will start to take notice. That’s why more intelligent designs are introduced in the market. Some designs, like the X10 Robo Dog is a barking dog alarm system that allows you to remotely control the bark by a remote keychain. Of course the alarm can still be triggered via motion detectors. The keychain remote is only to produce the unsystematic barking much like of a real dog. Also, this is a handy gadget to have against noisy trespassers who need to get off the vicinity of your property quickly. This barking dog alarm system will help them if need be.

But one cool feature of X10 barking dog alarm system is the added realism with lights. To effectively emulate occupancy, after programmable delay, selected lights are turned on. Added realism indeed; if any of the intruders will notice the bedroom windows turned on after a mad barking of a rottweiler, he’d be convinced that someone is going for his hunting rifle if the rottweiler won’t reach him first. Why not turn on all the lights outside?

With our present technology, the capacity to encode a real and convincing bark is no big feat. Rest assured, these dogs sound real and nasty, even cats and other dogs will scamper away after hearing the barking dog alarm system.
