Abstract:
Recently security concerns have grown tremendously, it is important for all to
be able to safeguard their property from worldly harms such as thefts, destruc-
tion of property etc. As the technology is widely growing in modern world,
the methodologies used by thieves and robbers are also equally improved in
stealing. Therefore, it is necessary for the surveillance techniques also to be
improved with the changing world. The latest technologies used against theft
and destruction are the video surveillance and monitoring. Even when needed,
having a security camera system may sometimes be impossible due to the ex-
pensive cost for installation.
Raspberry pi is credit card sized computer that has the capability to be-
come a camera security system when its own camera board is used. A new
methodology has been developed to detect the motion. Pyroelectric infrared
(PIR) sensors are used instead of any algorithm for motion detection. When-
ever the motion is detected through PIR sensor inside the room, the image is
captured through camera and temporarily stored in the raspberry pi module.
After motion is detected user gets push up message on android without any
delay and here python script is also used which directs the pi to send email
noti cations everytime motion is detected With these components, a cost ef-
fective, low power and e cient security camera system is made. Therefore,
advantages like these, makes this application ideal for monitoring in prevented
or secured areas.
