ABSTRACT
Security is a big issue in Nigeria and the world at large. Therefore, there is definitely a need for a surveillance system for our homes and offices which can be accessed via a PC or mobile phone. This research concentrates on developing an automatic system to replace the need for human monitoring. In this work we implemented a surveillance system to detect intruders and notify security staff using computer vision and email communication technologies. The system is also cost effective and easy to implement. This developed project uses one hikvision ip camera and one router. The motion detection algorithm was coded in Python OpenCV library in combination with AgentUI to provide database, thread handling and local server capabilities. We tested the system to verify that the system operated as expected. The test results were satisfactory.
