Description
Summary:The need for surveillance in a society escalates with an increase in population. As more people reside in a specified area, monitoring their activity gets tougher, which gives a rise in security concerns. Not only in societies, the need for surveillance, monitoring and detection has been a prime requirement in the defence sector. This research aims in developing a surveillance and detection robot which would be capable of various applications like monitoring environment at greater distances, detecting obstacles and objects, detecting mines in the ground and achieving autonomy in traversal. All these features combined in one package will serve as a complete solution to this problem. This robot can be used for surveillance, sending live feed to a local ground station in the city. Moreover, this robot can be used in hostile situations with the armed forces. The bot can be sent to survey a particular area and provide necessary data back to the soldiers to determine safety in proceeding further. Components ranging from cameras, motors, microcontrollers, sensors, communication modules are present in the system. The robot is an integration of various subsystems working together to provide an optimum solution for surveillance and detection.
