Smart Surveillance with Face Recognition and Object Detection using Drones

Drones are everywhere, from war to pharmacy delivery. Drones can also be used in surveillance, rescuing people from remote areas. Modern technologies like artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning must be implemented in our defence systems. Organisations and Institutes under the Defence Ministry require Drones to locate other countries’ soldiers, weapons, camps, ships, aircraft, etc. In this project, we are going to develop a drone that can detect people or soldiers, guns, grenades, ships, aircraft, weapons, etc., including face recognition. Using face recognition and objection detection algorithms, we will train models that can be used in real-time. The video data from the drone camera is sent to the servers. The video or image will be processed by the servers. Face recognition and object detection outputs will be given in the form of text messages and images. This drone technology can be used in anti-drone systems and anti-aircraft missiles to destroy other countries’ drones or missiles. Drones can be made autonomous. So, they can communicate with each other for better performance. Therefore, using this technology, better surveillance can be done. It can help national and state police officers and rescue teams locate victims of natural disasters like floods, tsunamis, etc.
