A security sensor can be placed anywhere in the house for example, at the doorbell or in the corridors which will send an alert whenever a person comes within its motion detection range. Nowadays, the motion sensors come equipped with motion capture cameras which transmit a high-quality video to its recipient whenever a person or an animal comes within its detection range.

2. Fire and Smoke Detectors

Every year properties worth millions turn into ash due to fire hazards. They are quite frequent in a developing nation like India where most people rely on cooking gas instead of electric stoves or burn wood during winter to fight off the chilly winter air or due to unfurnished electric wires. Fire detection sensors can easily sense if there is any rise in the CO (Carbon Monoxide- a poisonous gas) level in the area released from flames and accordingly set off alarms placed around the house notifying its occupants to clear out as soon as possible and at the same time trigger the fire safety pipelines if installed.
