Video Surveillance Based on Cloud Storage

Abstract

Traditional video surveillance systems require infrastructures including expensive servers with capabilities to process images and store video recordings. These surveillance systems produce and need to store a huge amount of data and to execute on them specific image analysis in real-time in order to detect safety events. We propose a video surveillance system based on Cloud Computing that collects multimedia streams generated by surveillance cameras, optimizes their transmissions according to network condition and stores them in a cloud storage system in an efficient and secure way.
