1. Car Alarm Sensor Working Principle
Car alarm sensor principle and assembly
Car alarm sensor principle is very simple: if someone hit, strike, or move your car, the sensor
will send a signal to the controller, indicating vibration intensity. According to the intensity of
the vibration, the controller will issue a warning beep or full sounding the alarm. There are
many methods to assemble car alarm sensor. There is a kind of sensor is relatively simple,
composed by two metal contacts, the longer flexible metal contact is located on top of the
other metal contact. You can easily set these the contacts into a simple switch: when they
are in contact with each other, the current will pass. When the vehicle violent shakes, the
elastic metal contacts will follow shaking, and expose to the following contact plate, thereby
temporarily form a closed circuit. The problem of this design is that the circuit will be closed
as long as the car is vibrating or shaking, and the controller cannot measure vibration
intensity, so it is easy to cause false positives. More advanced sensors can transmit different
information based on the strength of the vibration.
Different function of car alarm system
A set of state-of-the-art car alarm system should also include a separate alarm, the alarm
can issue sharp siren. A lot of noise makes people notice the car thieves, so most car thieves
will quickly fled the scene when sirens sound. Some alarm systems have set the alarm
sound; you can select a unique sound, so as not to confuse with other vehicles. Some alarm
systems can play a recorded warning when someone is too close to the vehicle. The main
purpose is to warn the thieves that your car is equipped with a state-of-the-art ultrasonic
alarm sensor before the theft. In most cases, the recidivists ignore such warnings, but for
amateur car thieves who try their luck, this will play a strong deterrent. In a sense, this gives
the alarm system the power to deter criminals. Inadvertently, your car is not just a concoction
of the device, become equipped smart machine.
The car alarm system will use more high-tech in future
From the 1990s to the present, the car alarm system has rapidly developed, which is applied
more and more widely. In the next decade, we believe that the car alarm system will use
more high-tech. Car GPS receiver has opened a vast world for the field of security. If the
receiver is connected with the alarm system controller, it can report the position of the vehicle
to the owners or the police at any time. In this way, even if the car is stolen, you can quickly
get it back.
