Espionage: a voice guided surveillance robot with DTMF control and web based control

Abstract

This paper proposes a research that was taken up in the wake of increasing awareness of security crisis all over the world. An effort has been made to briefly demonstrate the proof of concept of using a mobile surveillance system based on the Raspberry Pi, capable of streaming live video feed and being controlled through voice. In addition to that the robot can also be controlled through backup means should the main control system fails. Currently, the option of using a mobile phone to ring the bot and control it using the keypad via DTMF exists. Also the robot can be controlled from the internet using a web interface. The viability of the use of remote control technology in surveillance systems has been addressed in our endeavor.
