The document proposes a Surveillance Aided Robotic Bird (SARB) to improve on existing surveillance systems. SARB would be designed like a bird and equipped with cameras, including night vision, to monitor areas remotely. It would be powered by carbon nanotubes, allowing for wireless charging and extended flight time. SARB could track intruders under the control of image processing and fly between fixed points for charging. This would provide a more natural, mobile and energy efficient form of surveillance compared to static cameras.

Surveillance Aided Robotic Bird SARB MOHIT.S CSE mohitmonu23@ymail.com SRI SAI RAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY HARISH.T CSE tharish287@gmail.com SRI SAI RAM INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Abstract— In the context of conflict resolution, the definition of "security" depends on one's perspective. At the simplest level, security may be defined as "the quality or state of being secure," "freedom from danger”, The security gadgets we have are not so productive in various aspects. Due to increased immense criminal activities new innovations are need to be developed in security and surveillance. To solve this we design a robotic bird that records everything over the ground.These records can be useful in some cases for investigation. Keywords—surveillance aided robotic bird(SARB) I. INTRODUCTION Surveillance is the close observation of a person, group of people, behaviours, activities, infrastructure, building etc for the purpose of managing, influencing, directing, or protecting. There are several different methods of surveillance, including GPS tracking, camera observation, stake-outs, data mining and profiling, and biometric surveillance among others. II. EXISTING SYSTEM Surveillance is one of the main factor that contributes to security these days. Various surveillance gadgets placed in crime prone areas are of much importance for the cases. This makes surveillance a main contributor for security. Due to technological advancement these days, there are many surveillance gadgets that are being developed as a upgraded version, for resolving the various disadvantages of their predecessor systems. some of the surveillance gadgets that are used now are  Closed circuit television (CCTV)  Dynamic Remotely Operated Navigation Equipment(DRONES) 1) Dynamic Remotely Operated Navigation Equipment(DRONES) Traditional observational surveillance methods are typically limited by the stationary nature of the camera, which is usually handled manually or fixed upon a tripod or other structure. Aerial surveillance can be performed using a helicopter; whilst this achieves the desired result, it is also very costly. To resolve this an Unmanned aircraft systems provide the ideal solution to the problems and limitations faced by other surveillance methods. A drone is nothing but a An Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is a type of aircraft which has no onboard crew or passengers. UAVs include both autonomous drones and remotely piloted vehicles (RPVs). A UAV is capable of controlled, sustained level flight and is powered by a jet, reciprocating, or electric engine. The advantage of this drones is that they are more cost efficient than arial surveillance using a helicopter. These drones provide a decent images at high speed. Fig. 1. Drone surveillance in open environment Drones are advanced than their predecessors in several means like resolution, tracking speed ,precision etc. So, they are considered as a high level of surveillance these days. On the other hand, drones are considered as an invasion of privacy in the sense that they are constantly surveilling. Drones can carry high-power zoom lenses,night vision,and see-through imaging.Many people see drones flying over our homes as spying on us while we conduct our everyday lives. Another disadvantage is that the drones are supplied with a limited amount of battery backup which fails at a crucial time. 2) Closed circuit television (CCTV) Closed circuit television (CCTV) is a surveillance technology. More specifically, it is "a system in which a number of video ISBN-13: 978-1539045540 www.iirdem.org Proceedings of ICEEM-2016-Chennai ©IIRDEM 201658
cameras are connected in a closed circuit or loop, with the images produced being sent to a central television monitor or recorded". The term closed circuit television was originally used to differentiate between public television broadcasts and private camera-monitor networks. These days CCTV is used as a generic term for a variety of video surveillance technologies. Fig. 2. Fixed cctv in open environment These CCTV footages are very useful in various cases in every field either directly or indirectly. Various incidence that changed the world are captured by these cameras. These have several advantages as well as disadvantages. CCTV cameras can lull home and business owners into a false sense of complacency. While criminals might hesitate when they spot a CCTV camera, they too realize that cameras have their limits when they aren't paired with environmental hazard detectors, electronic access control panels and alarms. CCTV cameras can record a robbery or crime in progress, but they can't do anything to actually stop the crime. It's important to use cameras in conjunction with alarm systems so the proper authorities can be alerted of the crime as it's being recorded on the camera. Cameras by themselves can't prevent victims from having to fill out police reports, filing insurance claims and having to replace their stolen or destroyed belongings. The stable nature of the cameras are the primary thing which makes drones better than a cctv. III. PROPOSED SYSTEM In the existing surveillance system the monitoring device is always kept fixed at a particular location(cctv camera’s) which provides a major disadvantage to this kind of existing system because the have to be fixed at every nook and corner for better surveillance. While in the case of using the drones for surveillance instead of these fixed surveillance cameras we find two disadvantages :- the main problem is that the energy requirement to power up these devices and the second one which infact acts common to both is the naturality in using these in practice. So we go for this proposed system that is SARB The idea is to improve the existing surveillance system by capturing quality footage and to me mobile too. The problem of the surveillance mainly comes in remote public areas where we cannot fix cameras everywhere like railway stations, borders of nation,etc., (mainly outdoors). Now to avoid this SARB is first kept in a position where the maximum angle of view for the area to be monitored is obtained. 1) Surveillance The 3 cameras are fixed in the SARB,2 as eyes of the bird and one at the forehead. The camera used is a night vision camera so that it also enables us to do surveillance in these locations during night times. Now the captured video is continuously transmitted to the nearest surveillance centre where a person keeps on monitoring using the footage. The fixed position is supplied with a power supply so that it gives the power to transmit the video footage. This is done by wireless charging concept. a. Fig. 3. Example of SARB kept in fixed point 2) The camera adjustment A rotator ball mechanism like the system we use in side mirrors of our vehicles is applied to all the 3 cameras placed in SARB which gets operated on the instructions sent from the backend system for better viewing. 3) The battery problem Now to overcome the battery problem of the drones in exsisting system during time of flight the SARB is fabricated using carbon nanotube material which internally acts as the solar panels and provides ample power to increase its time of flight. The nanotube material which is by default black in color gives a nice fabrication to the SARB and also increases the naturality and stability of the SARB and these material provide high strength to the structure. These material also play a major role in increasing the time of flight by reducing the weight of SARB and increasing its time of flight since they are very light compared to other materials such as aluminium which are prominently used for making aerodynamic vehicles. 4) Image processing Now at the surveillance station the observer keeps on tracking the footage for any malicious activity if seldom occurs then the observer just instructs the SARB to track the intruder to be tracked then SARB uses image processing in the backend and the system at the back end instructs the bird to track the intruder using image processing so that it helps to find the intruder as soon as possible. 5) The hunt Now the working of tracking is such that as suggested above several fixed points should be organized such that when the SARB moves away from the previous location to the existing ISBN-13: 978-1539045540 www.iirdem.org Proceedings of ICEEM-2016-Chennai ©IIRDEM 201659
location it sets for the next frame of footage. Now this is done as follows:- each fixed point consists of a GPS module and a charging port to charge the bird wirelessly. Now the backend system senses the movement of the intruder and instructs the SARB to fly away to the nearest fixed point from the intruder to keep a track on him. Thereby by following the intruder till the final scope in the footage definitely helps to trace the intruder. Fig. 4. Fixed point block diagram 6) Naturality Now in the above proposed system it is just a part of advancement of the existing system the main fact is the naturality which diversifies the proposed from the existing system IV. ADVANTAGES 1.Naturality with increased resolution. 2.Tracking of victims if any. 3.Mobility with increased speed. 4.Energy efficient as they operate in solar energy as well as cost efficient. 5.privacy is not disturbed. V. CONCLUSION Surveillance has taken a prominent part in security of each individual. This surveillance methods acts as a detterent to crime and Apprehend a suspect when a crime occurs.So, this surveillance is an important aspects of life that are to be improved.This paper proposed a new method for improving surveillance factor more than existing methods by using a robotic bird.
