Smart ATM surveillance system

This paper presents an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) surveillance system which is a smart system based on embedded technology and incorporates various sensors to continuously monitor its surroundings for suspicious activities like physical attack, fraud and theft that might jeopardize the ATM and people nearby. Also discussed is the security and safety measures that can be implemented to prevent such raids by proper surveillance. This paper analyses the different forms of physical attacks on ATM's and discusses the methods that are used to detect the foray, commence proactive measures and tip-off officials through GSM network. We also discuss about the implementation of the proposed system, the sensors and the other supporting hardware that are being used to deploy this system. The proposed system thus heightens the security of ATM's against imminent attacks effectively.
