Abstract—The paper presents the development of a cost-effective microcontroller-based multi-home alarm system that can detect smoke and home intrusion. Acquisition of local materials was taken into consideration. The developed prototype can send notification text message whenever smoke or intrusion was detected. Developmental research design was used to come up with a working prototype of the design. To test the smoke alarm, the system was exposed to different burning materials such as paper, wood, plastic, cloth and rubber; and to test the intrusion alarm, the system was placed at different distances. Based from the findings of the study, all materials acquired locally were able to function properly. The system was found to be consistent and efficient with data transmission, processing and reception. Response time of less than 20 seconds for smoke alarm and less than 2 seconds for lock mechanism were recorded. The system instantly sent notification messages to the user after fire and proximity sensors were triggered.
