Monitoring Vehicle Activity in Residential Societies

An increase in vehicles within residential societies has resulted in issues, including congestions during parking, unpermitted vehicle access, and raised security concerns. For such issues, this paper has looked into developing a low-cost mobile application camera system intended to track the vehicle activity in such communities. Low in terms of cost, efficient with regards to vehicle management as well as security, and has the ability to utilize free-of-charge mobile technologies in tandem with strategically place camera systems around the community, which can track a vehicle’s movement and provide on-the-spot recording and indication of unauthorized entry with respective alerts to residents and relevant security personnel. The mobile application is also a user-friendly interface by which residents can monitor the real-time footage, can receive alerts, and easily manage access to parking areas. Moreover, the system promotes community engagement by allowing participation in the monitoring process. It enhances vigilance generally. This solution is not only affordable but also scalable, thus accessible to residential societies of a wide variety. This would enable the system to focus more on cost-effectiveness and user-friendliness while, at the same time, improving security, vehicle management, and contributing to an organized, safer living space for its residents.
