Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電機學院電機與控制學程 === 99 === Regarding the increasing trends of low birth and single rate, the population of elderly people is gradually rising in Taiwan. The age over 65 was 10.74% of total population in the end of 2010. Taiwan already has become an aging society. Moreover, a lack of caring resource for elders and high expense of private healthcare institutions have raised the anxiety level for caregivers. Most parents are busy at working and could not pay more attention on their children.
In this paper, we address the design and development of a remote surveillance system for early warning. This system was built on an OMAP3530 of dual core architecture with embedded Linux operating system, which integrates a USB P/T camera as the video capture device, a touch screen as a GUI, a USB Wi-Fi module used for communication, a USB Bluetooth device used for receiving data of GPS and compass. We also use Google map and a USB Joystick in a clouding computer side for communication with OMAP3530.
A series of function testing has been conducted for this portable sysetm. The proposed system is more attractive than conventional IP cameras. It conducts polygon region detection as an electronic fence, and triggers alarms when the target crosses the region. The scope of activity can be detected immediately and set through the clouding server. An administrator also can track the target with Google Maps and monitor the surroundings through video streaming by controlling the joystick. This system also supports the guidance of direction and distance, message interaction, object detection for message and remote photo center.
