Abstract:
In recent times, a wide variety of applications for Aerial Surveillance are being introduced. This project has been aimed to design and implement an Aerial Surveillance Unit that will be used for further research on applications of Aerial Surveillance to traffic management, crime management, pollution control, protection and security. The preliminary prototype will consist of a camera device that will provide live video feed at the remote end and the complete system will be teleoperated. The main control system consists of ATmega2560, for the surveillance system we have used a low power serial camera, the secured communication system consists of a Wi-Fi router connected to Arduino Ethernet Shield, the flight mechanism is accomplished using a high rpm bldc motor and servo motors has been used to control lift, yaw and landing. The surveillance mechanism had worked successfully receiving video at 640x 480 and 320x 240 resolutions. Since, it is a preliminary device there is definite scope for further development to design an Aerial Surveillance Unit for the desired purpose
