At the same time, the algorithm goes ahead and assigns a particular tent to the resident of the colony. To streamline the monitoring process and expedite surveillance activities, a small display unit is strategically installed outside each tent.

In the present Invention, we have proposed a system that provides the facility of real-time, surveillance of a tent city utilizing a drone system (108) consisting of a camera module (101), a thermal sensing camera module (102), a radioactive detection module (103), a surveillance grid, and an anti-jamming system (104).
Whenever a new person moves into the tent city, their personal information is added to the integrated surveillance system. This starts the process of creating a special QR code that is carefully designed to hold important data including the resident's name, identification number, passport information, and any other vital documents for identification. At the same time, the algorithm goes ahead and assigns a particular tent to the resident of the colony. To streamline the monitoring process and expedite surveillance activities, a small display unit is strategically installed outside each tent. This display unit serves as the portal through which the generated QR code is promptly showcased as soon as the tent assignment is finalized. The display unit is placed in such a way that the QR can be easily scanned with the camera module to send it to the control center (105).
Regular surveillance within the tent city is facilitated by drones equipped with a comprehensive array of sensors including high-resolution cameras (101), thermal sensors (102) for detecting body heat signatures, and radioactivity detectors (103) to identify any hazardous materials or radiation sources. These drones are remotely operated from the control centre (105), allowing authorities to conduct surveillance efficiently and effectively. During surveillance flights, when a drone detects a tent within its field of view using its camera module, it automatically scans the QR code displayed outside the tent using image recognition algorithms. The scanned QR code contains unique resident details such as name, ID, passport information, and assigned tent number. Subsequently, the drone retrieves the image of the QR code, enabling authorities to access information regarding the individual's travel history and other pertinent data. This information is transmitted in real time to the control centre (105), where data analysis is performed. At the control centre (105), analysts analyze resident data, including travel history and any other relevant information, to identify patterns, trends, or anomalies that may require further investigation. Additionally, the drone captures sensor data from thermal sensors and radioactivity detectors during its surveillance flights. This data is also transmitted to the control centre (105), where it is analyzed in conjunction with resident information to enhance situational awareness and facilitate proactive security measures. Overall, this integrated approach to surveillance and data analysis ensures comprehensive monitoring of the tent city while enabling swift response to emerging security threats or emergencies. All the information gathered by the system is sent to cloud server (109) for future analysis.
Utilizing advanced thermal imaging and radioactivity detection capabilities, the integrated surveillance system meticulously scans the tent city, identifying potential threats or anomalies that may compromise the safety and security of residents and relief workers. Equipped with drones equipped with high-resolution cameras, thermal sensors, and radioactivity detectors, the system conducts comprehensive surveillance, monitoring for abnormal heat signatures, radiation emissions, and other indicators of suspicious activity. The Lore WAN module is used for the transmission of data. All this data is also stored in the cloud server for future analysis.
The anti-jamming system (104) integrated into the drones serves as a critical component of the surveillance infrastructure, providing robust protection against intentional interference aimed at disrupting communication channels. The anti-jamming system (104) not only safeguards communication channels but also plays a pivotal role in enhancing security measures by blocking data transmission from individuals deemed potentially dangerous or suspicious. Leveraging advanced threat detection algorithms, the system can identify signals originating from such individuals and promptly inhibit their ability to transmit data, thereby mitigating potential security risks and safeguarding the integrity of the surveillance operation. This proactive approach to data management ensures that critical information remains protected and accessible only to authorized personnel, reinforcing the overall security posture of the tent city, and enhancing the effectiveness of surveillance efforts in identifying and addressing security threats.
Upon detection of anomalies or deviations from expected patterns, the system triggers immediate alerts to the centralized control centre (105), signaling the need for prompt action. These alerts are not only activated in response to overt threats such as unauthorized intrusions or hazardous materials but also in instances where discrepancies or suspicious details are found in the individual's retrieved data from the QR code. By cross-referencing resident information with databases and predefined security protocols, the system can flag potential risks associated with specific individuals or locations. Upon receiving an alert, designated response forces are swiftly deployed to the location of the detected anomaly, equipped to assess the situation, investigate further, and implement appropriate measures to mitigate the threat. Whether it involves verifying the identity of an individual, conducting a thorough inspection of the tent premises, or coordinating with relevant authorities for specialized assistance, the response is tailored to address the specific nature of the detected anomaly and ensure the safety and well-being of all individuals within the tent city.
