Thefts have been on the rise in recent years. This produces a dangerous climate in which people live in terror. In today's environment, the problem of home security is a source of anxiety. The standard intruder detection systems that we currently use are extremely expensive, and there is a risk of false alerts. This issue is solved by combining OpenCV and a mobile phone to create a framework that can accurately recognize a interloper while filtrating the movements caused by objects which are moving. If an interloper is identified, the system sends a message to the user via an API called Twilio, and the footage is saved to the local storage.
