Key Points Internet of Things Video Surveillance ΙοΤ Monitoring Network topology Architecture

Monitoring A number of modern mobile devices, like mobile phones, PDAs, laptops and others, become ubiquitous in recent years and people into the era of pervasive computing. All these devices could be used with the aim to find out useful information when we are on the road and when we are travelling. Monitoring definition: “Monitoring is the act of listening, carrying out surveillance on, and/or recording the emissions of one’s own or allied forces for the purpose of maintaining and improving procedural standards and security, or for reference, as applicable”.

Monitoring Monitoring related to Surveillance. Surveillance definition: Surveillance is “the close observation of the behaviour, the activities, or other changing information” . Sensors and cameras or other compatible devices are necessary for the surveillance with the aim to do the monitoring. With the use of this technology observation at a distance is possible, using electronic equipment or stealing electronically transmitted information which may include simple, relevant technology methods.

Internet of Things Telecommunication field new technology IoT The next major step in the recent technology field is the IoT technology, but however with the major difference that brings enormous changes in business functionality. In order to fully exploit IoT and Surveillance, it is mandatory to combine them so as to achieve the optimisation of surveillance technology through the use of the Internet of Things technology.

Topology Proposal Major issue of the Video Surveillance is the transmission of data through the video recorder devices and how those devices should be set up with the aim to have a better use of remote control. Solution Propose an innovative topology paradigm that combines the advantages of the use of IoT and the characteristics of Surveillance. Topology: Reliable network in error detecting and troubleshooting. Scalable the size of the network as in can be increased easily, and additionally. Offers flexibility. Provides a more effective network.
