Implementation of spy robot for a surveillance system using Internet protocol of Raspberry Pi

Abstract

At present the surveillance of International border areas is a difficult task. The border guarding forces are patrolling the border seriously, but it is not possible to watch the border at each and every moment. An essential requirement of this situation is a robot which automatically detects trespasser in the border and report nearby board security control unit. Many of the military departments now utilize the robots to carry out risky jobs that cannot be done by the soldiers. In this present work, a Raspbian operating system based spy robot platform withremote monitoring and control algorithm through Internet of Things (IoT)has been developed which will save human live, reduces manual error and protect the country from enemies. The spy robot system comprises the Raspberry Pi (small single-board computer), night vision pi camera and sensors. The information regarding the detection of living objects by PIR sensor is sent to the users through the web server and pi camera capture the moving object which is posted inside the webpage simultaneously. The user in control room able to access the robotwithwheel drive control buttons on the webpage. The movement of a robot is also controlled automatically through obstacle detecting sensors to avoiding the collision. This surveillance system using spy robot can be customized for various fields like industries, banks and shopping malls.
