A Surveillance System of Android Smartphone with Context-awareness

Abstract

Video surveillance is a basic mean for fields monitoring, but in uncertain plots for emergency, it is usually impossible to construct a delivery channel for video surveillance. With the wide spreading of 3G network and smart phones equipped with powerful processor and context-aware sensors, it is possible to build a context-aware based mobile surveillance. This work provided a mobile video surveillance solution combined with mobile context-awareness realized on Android smartphones. The present paper discussed a context-awareness framework of smart phone and relevant technology firstly. Then, it introduced mobile surveillance architecture and the realization process. Experiment result and use case showed the methods for video collection and delivery and QoS were feasible. This proposed system is constructed with inner sensors of smartphones and no need to construct a fixed delivery channel. Compared with traditional video surveillance system, the system realized with our solution is more flexible, pervasive, and cheaper.
