An Embedded Laboratory Security Monitoring System
ABSTRACT
This paper presents the design and implementation of an Embedded Laboratory Security Monitoring System (ELSMS). The system includes a web server which acquires video information through camera, and Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) which gets environmental parameters through sensors and sends them to the web server. Users can access the Monitoring Server (MS) through PCs or Wireless Mobile Terminals(WMT) which are developed using Qt, to watch video and check environmental parameters in real-time. When an exception occurs, the MS sends Short Message Service (SMS) through GSM Modem, displays alarm information on web and gives sound and light alarm, etc. SQLite database stores historical information related to environmental parameters for users' query. The system proposed in this paper is a kind of new monitoring system that is applicable to the lab and other fields that store valuables.
