Abstract

The security cameras like CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) are tools that can minimize theft in both private homes and public places. But the problem with most of the CCTV and security cameras are that they are not having the mechanisms that can be used to monitor the place at an angle that is difficult to reach by a CCTV camera, i.e. they cannot be panned and tilted to reach an angle that is difficult to reach. Also, the CCTV cameras are not portable, are not wireless and requires a dedicated systems in order to be operable. In this study, a simulation tool was designed that combines an ESP32 Camera Module, that can be programmed using Arduino IDE, with 180 degree rotatable SG90 servo motors, in order for it to rotate horizontally and vertically. Its cost is significantly lesser than the cost of a moving CCTV camera, and it can be controlled from anywhere in the house within the WIFI range and its wireless. And with this simulation can be an alternative of CCTV cameras. Also, the requirement for a dedicated system and a dedicated person for the surveillance is absent, as it can be accessed from anyone having the WIFI credentials and within the range of the wifi network. Dedicated system is not required as it only needs a smartphone or PC/laptop for viewing camera footage
