IOT based Wireless Video Surveillance Robot using Raspberry Pi

Abstract

A wireless video surveillance system consists of three major components: 1) the video capture and preprocessing; 2) the video compression and transmission in wireless sensor networks; and 3) the video analysis at the receiving end. Video surveillance is the process of monitoring a situation, an area or a person. This generally occurs in a military scenario where surveillance of borderlines and enemy territory is essential to a country’s safety Wireless Video Surveillance Robot using Raspberry Pi. Video surveillance is the process of monitoring a situation, an area or a person. We have developed a robot which can be used for video surveillance & monitoring which can be controlled through a GUI interface This paper proposes a method for controlling a wireless robot for surveillance using an application built on Android platform. Android Smartphone and Raspberry pi board is connected to Wi-Fi. An Android Smartphone sends a wireless command which is received by Raspberry pi board and accordingly robot moves. The Video Streaming is done using MJPG streamer program that gets mjpeg data and sends it through a HTTP session. The Raspberry pi programming is done in python language. The experimental result shows that the video streamed up to 15 frames per second.
