Developing a vision based low cost surveillance system using lab VIEW

A low end vision based surveillance robot is proposed hereof. The robot is fabricated from readily available components powered by four DC motors. When loaded with the floor plan and having being trained for unprecedented action, it sends an alarm to the security and starts uploading the images captured to the cloud. The security may choose to respond to the cause or reset the robot after scrutinizing the images on his monitor. The robot also has a smart charging feature. When tested in the academic premises of the university, the robot was found to function as per the desired efficacy. This technology is cheaper and much more efficient than the conventional CCTV systems in terms of efficient data processing, storage and interpretation.
