Smoke alarm project using 555 timer IC

-Pradeep G
This project uses a 555 timer IC with an optical sensor to create a smoke detection alarm system. The optical sensor consists of an IR diode and a photodiode with a small gap in between. During normal condition the photodiode is receiving the IR signal from the IR diode. The presence of smoke interrupts the signal to the photodiode which in turn activates the 555 timer IC to generate alarm. The timer IC is configured as an astable multivibrator with a frequency in the audible range.

if we replace the photo interrupter module by a photo transistor and an infrared led,will this circuit work as a burglar alarm?
