Development of mobile phone based surveillance system

摘要

In today's world, ensuring security for important locations is a burning issue. Different surveillance methodologies such as alarm system, CCTV, PC based video system are used to ensure this security. But using all these systems, it is not possible for a person to monitor the security of his or her desired location when they are outside. Now-a-days anybody can communicate with anyone at anytime around the globe with the help of mobile phone technology. By keeping the technological facility of mobile phone in mind, a mobile phone based surveillance system has been described in this paper. This paper will give a solution for the security of corporate houses as well as corporate personnel. In this system there are server and client end. Server will store images being captured by the webcam of an important location. Then based on clients request sending from their mobile phone to the server, clients will be able to view the images from their mobile phone that is stored in the server. Clients are also able to move the webcam by sending control instruction from their mobile phone to view the images of their desired position. The developed system has been tested first using the GUI (emulator) designed by NetBeans IDE. It has also been tested using different mobile phones to see the images in real time and it provides the true sense of real mobility and security by accessing the desired location from the mobile phone anytime anywhere whenever wishes. This surveillance system can also be implemented for other handheld devices like PDA.
