Abstract: A low cost High Definition (HD) security surveillance system with motion detection and device control over the internet is explained in this paper. The system is reconfigurable and can be applied to many applications. However for the purposes of this project a system configured to monitor a home and home devices is explained. Further reconfigurability can make the system suitable for use in military surveillance, bank vaults and locker rooms, shopping malls and authenticated areas depending on the devices to be controlled. The real time surveillance is carried out by the D-Link DCS 930 IP wireless camera that works with both Wi-fi and Ethernet connection.
