MAGIX: A GSM enabled security system driven by an 8051 microcontroller.
Being used to program in Java at work, I still long to work on some embedded systems and firmware development in good old C. Moreover, the openness of some of the GSM phones amaze and attract me to do something with them, this is specially true for Sony-Ericsson and Siemens.
Hence, I planned for a generic security system with GSM integration, this could also be used as an add-on / plugin for other stand alone security systems to make them GSM enabled.
Implemented Features:
- Sending SMS messages to any cellphone
- Decode incoming SMS messages to extract text
Planned Features:
- Taking actions on the basis of incoming SMS
- Hooking up sensors for intrusion detection
- Controlling of devices via relays or optocoplers
- Stand-alone circuit design and implementation
- 220v AC power supply
- Power saving mode with wake-up via interrupts for automobile applications
Here you can see a SE T68i phone connected to a PJRC 8051 development board running the under-development firmware, the other serial port connects the the PC for interactive development under the PJRC monitor software.

thanks manish, currently the system is a PJRC SBC with a SE T68i cell phone on its AUX serial port. The software is very specific to this board but any cell phone which understands AT commandset would work, please see http://www.pjrc.com/ for circuit diagram of the board, if you have this SBC I can send you the software, I just need to pull it out like a needle from a hair stack

I have being looking for this type of project to build as my final year project at school. Can you please send me the details of this project including the circuit diagram and souce codes. I will be very pleased.
