Summary
We created a simple alarm system based on Arduino and controlled it via LabVIEW. We interfaced motion sensors to our Arduino board and monitored the state of these sensors via LabVIEW. We also used XBee modules to monitor our alarm system wirelessly.
There are, of course, several ways to go further with this project. You can add even more motion sensors to the projects. However, at the time of writing this book, it was not possible to include several XBee modules and have several distant Arduino projects communicating with a central LabVIEW interface. However, we can also make the project more visual, for example, by connecting an LED to one pin of the Arduino board and making this LED blink every time motion is detected on one motion sensor. ...
