Abstract
This project demonstrates a location detection system using an Arduino-based transmitter and
The system consists of two Arduino boards: one as the transmitter and the other as the receiver.
The transmitter Arduino is connected to two LED lights. When a person passes between the LEDs,
an interruption in the transmitted signal occurs, triggering the transmitter to send a signal. The
receiver Arduino, connected to a buzzer and LED sensor, picks up this signal, activating both
1. Setup: The system has two Arduinos, each with distinct roles - the Transmitter Arduino with two
LEDs and the Receiver Arduino with a buzzer and LED sensor for alerts.
2. Signal Transmission: When someone passes between the LEDs on the Transmitter Arduino, it
3. Signal Reception and Alert: The Receiver Arduino receives the signal, triggering both the buzzer
4. Applications: Effective for security systems, motion detection, and entry alert systems,

Conclusion
The Arduino-based location detection and alert system successfully demonstrates the feasibility of a simple,
cost-effective solution for detecting and alerting on proximity or movement in designated areas. Through effective
wireless communication between a transmitter and receiver, the system reliably triggers alerts (buzzer and LED)
upon detecting movement, showing potential for applications in security, monitoring, and accessibility support.
The project highlights the utility of Arduino and RF modules in real-time response systems, offering a foundation
for scalable enhancements, such as integrating more advanced sensors or connecting to IoT networks for remote
monitoring.
This project not only validates the use of RF communication for location detection but also underscores the
flexibility and adaptability of Arduino systems in creating customized, responsive solutions for various needs.
