Remote video monitoring system based on ARM and Linux

摘要

The capability of remote video surveillance is an important application for embedded system. However, the main challenge of such applications is the limitations on flexibility and reliability, especially for high requirements of image quality. In this paper, a kind of new surveillance technology for real-time remote video monitoring is presented. To verify the performance of the proposed technique, a new remote video monitoring system based on S3C2410X microprocessor and Linux OS has been implemented successfully. Hardware architecture and video capture program of the remote video monitoring system are proposed in detail. The experimental results demonstrate that the new monitoring system has a satisfactory performance in comparison with the traditional surveillance methods. It is applicable to replace the traditional remote video surveillance systems completely.
