Development of Surveillance Robot to Monitor the Work Performance in Hazardous Area

The paper focuses on the idea of providing surveillance using a robot with the techniques of IOT. Surveillance is a major issue in public restricted areas. The robot is hired here to monitor throughout the day. This robotic vehicle has ability to substitute the human in hazardous area to provide surveillance. The robot is operated manually by connecting it to Wi-Fi and consists of sensors for identifying any obstacles and identifying humans and give live streaming to respective admin. This is operated over Wi-fi using blynk app software. Arduino IDE is used in programming the robot. ICs like L293D (motor driver) and sensors like PIR, ultrasonic helps in movement of the mechanical body and detection of obstacles respectively. A camera is equipped for capturing the image of the person identified. A face recognition algorithm can help in spotting the intruder. The gas sensor provided can sense the presence of toxic chemicals in its surroundings. Thus the robot continuously provides data in remote location in addition to the advantages of reduced human loss and detection of threats.
