The project is aimed at creating a simple humanoid for multiple purposes although, mainly concentrating on surveillance. It can move, talk, answer questions and recognize faces. It uses a raspberry pi for its working. Using its camera it can capture pictures and record videos. | ISSN:2249-5789 Lakshmi et al , International Journal of Computer Science & Communication Networks,Vol 5(3),169-172 Home Security Robot Dharani Sethuram Lakshmi N Dept. of Information Science and Engineering BMS College of Engineering Bangalore, India dharanisethuram@ Dept. of Information Science and Engineering BMS College of Engineering Bangalore, India Ashvini V Dept. of Information Science and Engineering BMS College of Engineering Bangalore, India ashvinivaratharaj@ Abstract—Humans are the most advanced creatures of the nature. It is believed that humanoid robots will be the most advanced creatures of humans. Among the man-made creatures such as automobile, hand-phones and multimedia devices, robots of future will hopefully be the most ideal assistants to human beings. Robots can live up to this expectation because future intelligent and autonomous robots could free humans from, or ease them up of, repeatedly undertaking physically and mentally challenging routines. A humanoid robot is a robot with its body shape built to resemble that of the human body. In the present world, safety has become one of the major challenges to be handled. Since manual monitoring of a house is not completely efficient, humanoids can be used in their places. The robot can act as a surveillance monitoring system which can detect new faces and store it in the database. The project is aimed at creating a simple humanoid for multiple purposes although, mainly concentrating on surveillance. It can move, talk, answer questions and recognize faces. It uses a raspberry pi for its working. Using its camera it can capture pictures and record videos. Keywords—Autonomous,Raspberry pi, Surveillance, Robbots, Humanoid. I. INTRODUCTION A robot is a mechanical or virtual artificial agent, usually an electro-mechanical machine that is guided by a computer program or electronic circuitry. Man has invented different robots for different purposes. .
