Little Brother Surveillance Nathaniel Brown and Chris Mordue
Review of basic project concept View surveillance camera images on a cell phone Scenario Parent and young child in department store Find lost child Related work Cell cameras (cameras with a phone number) b cameras
Demonstration Hope to have full demo working Display images from camera on cell phone Same as original scenario Implementation has changed though
Implementation Diagram
FPGA Architecture USB Controller Load Image Controller SRAM Image Resize Computer
Computer Software Architecture Java Capture Code C Code for USB Communication Bluetooth Communication FPGAWebcam Cell Phone
Implementation What is done? Software to get images from webcam PC software to communicate with FPGA over USB USB communication on FPGA Read/write to SRAM on FPGA Image resize algorithm What isn’t? Putting it all together and testing Cell phone Bluetooth is much more complicated than expected
Evaluation Haven’t got everything working yet to test Want to test: How often can we send new images? How user friendly is it?
Future Work Remove the PC from our implementation Extend the system to handle multiple cameras Allow user to click through all of a store’s cameras Allow remote control of cameras via phone For use by security personnel
