So in this project, I show you how to build a laser tripwire alarm. All you need is a cheap laser point, a couple of mirrors, and a few dollars of electrical parts. With this you can cover an entire house with an array of light beams. If any one of them is crossed it sets off your alarm. And unlike in the movies, these lasers are practically invisible.
Open Access is a hackerspace security system that was born out of a project out of Fullerton, CA’s 23B Shop hackerspace. It keeps the doors of a building locked until a recognized RFID fob is applied to the reader.
