Abstract

The exponential growth of science and technology, together with the improvement of the standard of living of people, has made security and surveillance systems essential for our day-to-day activities. These demands have increased the usage of surveillance systems such as CCTVs from the comfort of our homes, schools, hospitals, and workplaces. There are presently many surveillance system implementations to meet these demands; however, these systems have low bandwidths, lack interoperability with Internet protocol surveillance devices from different vendors, and do not allow multiple users to access and interact with a single system. This study aimed to develop a video surveillance system by using a wireless network and optical fiber cable to provide a systematic approach to integrating internet protocol cameras into Web applications for video and data transmissions. The study adopted a waterfall model to create an application that will integrate different makes of security devices into one uniform system and subsequently deploy it as a Web application for easy access. The robustness of the developed system addressed the challenges of currently existing systems. By using optical fiber as the backbone, we improved CCTV surveillance in terms of transmission speed, footage quality, and general performance of the systems.
