This Smart home security system utilizes the Amazon Alexa and Amazon Plug to upgrade your home's security system. By simply mounting the part above a door frame and saying the phrase, "Alexa, Intruder Alert" The devices Raspberry Pi and Servo motor turn on blasting the intruder with several shots of water from a squirt gun. By simply setting up an Amazon Alexa Routine in the Amazon Alexa app, the voice command is simple to set up. For the Raspberry Pi Simply setting up a "Execute Code on Start up" at https://www.dexterindustries.com/howto/run-a-program-on-your-raspberry-pi-at-startup/ and using the code found from in https://tutorials-raspberrypi.com/raspberry-pi-servo-motor-control/ it is quite easy to copy and paste these to get the project ready.
