Enhance Home Security with the Best Home Security Sensor Systems

The most important component of an alarm system in homes, is the Home Security Sensor System. Getting to know in detail about the various sensor systems available will help you choose the right one to keep your home and loved ones safe and sound. The most common home security sensors available in the market are:

1) Sensors for windows and glass: This type of sensor basically detects the vibrations made by the opening of any window or glass door. In case this sensor is connected to an alarm system, it will trigger an alarm as soon as it detects such type of vibrations. On the other hand, a glass break detecting sensor system detects vibrations caused by glass breaking and will trigger an alarm if it detects the glass of the window on which it is placed break.

2) Sensors that detect motion: This type of sensor primarily detects movement up to a certain distance and converts it into electric signals that are transmitted to a base unit. The three types in this are:

            a) Passive Infra-red sensor which tracks heat emitted by the body.

            b) Microwave sensor which transmits microwave signals and tracks a change in the

               Signals that are received back.

            c) Ultrasonic sensor sends out radio or sound waves and tracks any changes in the

               Echo that comes back.

3) Heat sensors track changes in the thermal energy around the sensors.

By using the home security sensor system as an adjunct to the traditional Outside Security Cameras, you can maximize the security of your homes.
