Abstract

Background/Objective: Due to the raise in number of kidnaps and road accidents, it is essential for the parents and school authorities to take necessary safety measures to avoid these plausible mishaps. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Each child is provided with a Tag for the daily bus transportation to tag on a RFID reader present in the bus. It reads the tag value and sends the information to RPi3, which is then redirected to the GPS module; it can identify the location of the bus and send the information to parent’s mobile through GSM providing the location of their child accordingly. Findings: The bus unit used detects when a child get into/ get off the bus and this data is sent to parents through GSM and then if the parent wants to know their child’s precise location, they can do it by sending “Where” message to GSM, and it returns the information. They can monitor their children through video streaming from the camera in bus. Applications: Student’s data is also accessible to both parents and school administration to get the video streaming and children’s individual information.

Abstract

Objectives: Through this paper, design of a reliable real-time (Live) video streaming and surveillance system is proposed, which can be broadcasted over a Local-Area Network (LAN/ WLAN) with remote access. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Proposed system design features Raspberry Pi along with night-vision camera, programmed using Python programming language. Raspberry Pi’s IP address is fetched and VNC server is setup to create virtual desktop on host device for remote-user. Host device is a Personal Computer/Smartphone connected to same LAN/ WLAN on which Raspberry Pi is connected. VLC media player serves as source for live streaming on host device running a VNC viewer. Findings: Previously, live video surveillance meant massive machinery, restricted to larger spaces and usually involved Closed-circuit television cameras. The technological advancements, ease of access and usability in Latter-day gadgets brought forth easier connectivity, bridging the gap between virtual and the real worlds. This makes dealing with indispensable concepts like security and surveillance much convenient, even for a remote user. Keeping in mind all these concepts, an effective; simple yet powerful design for a live video streaming and surveillance system has been proposed.For effective implementation of the design, Raspberry Pi 3 Model B along with a Raspberry Pi NoIR camera V2 module has been used and VLC media player acts as the streaming medium for the live video broadcast, initiated by the code written in Python. VNC server and viewer are used for remote connections over the Local-Area Network. And since a night-vision camera is being utilized, it allows the user to keep an eye on the area even in dark and low light conditions with ease. Application/Improvements: The system proposed offers numerous amounts of applications due to its versatility. Through this design, a hassle-free live video streaming/surveillance may be effortlessly availed even by an average user.
