Abstract

In recent years, surveillance systems designed for public safety have become more intelligent by providing context awareness. Traditional surveillance camera systems require access to energy and networking infrastructure in order to operate and to transmit the recorded video data. Since such requirements can increase the costs incurred when installing and maintaining surveillance systems, a wireless surveillance camera system is hereby introduced. The system can operate with low power consumption and also provides network connectivity. The battery life of the system is improved by separating the system into master and slave subsystems. The master subsystem provides Wi-Fi connectivity and records video while the slave-subsystem provides low-power event detection with ZigBee connectivity. The system uses Wi-Fi mesh networks to transmit video data and ZigBee networks to define the network topology and to synchronize multiple surveillance camera systems. Time synchronization is a fundamental issue for distributed surveillance camera systems, so this chapter details a method to synchronize time among multiple surveillance camera systems by using ZigBee radio communications.
