Abstract

Closed circuit television systems (CCTV) are getting widely popular and are being deployed in many workspaces, housing estates and in most public spaces. Efficiency of CCTV surveillance can be improved by incorporation of image processing and object detection algorithm into monitoring process. In this project, we specialize in the task of automated detection and recognition of dangerous incidents for CCTV systems. We propose solutions that are able to alert the human operator when a weapon is visible in the image through e-mail. We have shown that it's possible to make a system that's capable of an early warning during a dangerous situation, which can cause faster and more effective response times and reduce in the number of potential victims. Face Detection and Face recognition of individuals is an intricate problem which has garnered much attention during recent years because of its ever-increasing applications in numerous fields. In this project the facial detection has been carried out using Viola Jones algorithm.
