Smart Surveillance System using Raspberry Pi and Face Recognition

Abstract

This paper proposes the Smart Surveillance System using Raspberry Pi and Image Processing. This system will serve as smart security module for monitoring. Traditional surveillance systems only records the activities based on motion, but this system serves the purpose of facial recognition so as to reduce the error caused due to motion detection .Raspberry Pi camera module is used to capture images once the motion is detected by the PIR Sensor. This system will monitor when motion detected and checks for the faces in the image captured and with the help of face recognition alerts if the face detected is not stored in the database
