Multipurpose surveillance robot

Project Area of Specialization RoboticsProject Summary

Video surveillance is the process of monitoring a situation, an area or a person. This generally occurs in a military scenario where surveillance of borderlines and enemy territory is essential to a country’s safety. Human surveillance is achieved by deploying personnel near sensitive areas in order to constantly monitor for changes. But humans do have their limitations, and deployment in inaccessible places is not always possible.

There are also added risks of losing personnel in the event of getting caught by the enemy. With advances in technology over the years, it is possible to remotely monitor areas of importance by using robots in place of humans.

This project presents a modern approach for surveillance at remote and border areas using multifunctional robot based on current IOT  used in defense and military applications. This robotic vehicle has ability to substitute the solider at border  area to provide surveillance. The  robotic  vehicle  works  both   as autonomous and manually controlled vehicle using internet communication  medium.This multisensory   robot used to detect presence of enemy capture it in camera and  give  the  live  streaming  to  the  authorized  person Surveillance is major role while we workin on  border  area  for   this  there  is  robot  for surveillance  purpose.This paper presents a smart  surveillance  robot  for  military application by using  Raspberry  Pi  for  security purpose. An field Raspberr pi sends a wireless  command to the robot  by Authorized  person through a controller and  robot  moves accordingly. The Video  Streaming is  done using  Raspberry pi camera. The Raspberry pi programming is done in python language.

The ultrasonic sensor is installed to detect and measure the distance of the object by using sound waves.

We have also installed a hand on the vehicle to pick up samll objects if needed so.

Project Objectives

Our project is to design and build a  surveillance robot that replace the humans in the dangerous environment. The main purpose of the robot is to be able to roam around in a given environment while transmitting back real time data (video) to the authorized person and reduce the risks for humans and enhance the survillance system. This real time data can then be used by the controller (human) to move the robot around.

Project Implementation Method

A design and implementation

methodology used for developing

supervised robotic systems. The methodology has

been used in the development of a number of

successful robotic systems ranging from teleoperated

to highly systems.

The development process is split into two parts -

design and implementation. These are two discrete

phases in developing telerobotic systems. A

hierarchical control structure, combined with a

component-based software implementation approach

serves to simplify and accelerate control system

development.

Benefits of the Project

Robots reduce risks for humans

The robot can serve as eyes and ears for human agents by replacing them in difficult or dangerous environments.

Always on ,robots are impervious to the weather.

Their vigilance never falters, even when performing the most repetitive tasks.

They are always ready to react within a millisecond, even after hours of operation.

As long as their batteries are charged, they keep on going.

they strictly enforce the rules they have been programmed for.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The robot's program instruct the robot to move to a specified point, it does not actually perform as per specified. 

The ability of a robot returns repeatedly to a given position.

A robot simultaneously moving with all joints in complimentary directions at full speed with full extension.
