An Overview of New Trends in Smart Home and Video Surveillance System Design

Description

The smart home had been a new dimension that offered comfort, lifestyle, remote control devices, task automation, access control systems, surveillance systems, and management systems.Moreover, the benefits of new networking technologies along with digital imaging and camera intelligence, are making video surveillance and remote control more efficient than ever before. This manuscript presents an overview of new trends in smart home-related technologies like IoT, communicaton protocols, intelligent devices, Cloud, Fog and Edge Computing, video surveillance, and video management systems. However, the growth of a smart home system along with video surveillance in an IoT infrastructure requires dealing with issues such as security, flexibility and scalability. Therefore, this manuscript proposes an overview of new trends in smart homes, IoT and video surveillance, as well as a Microservices Architecture in an Edge Computing Environment. This makes smart home systems more flexible, more scalable, and even more secure. Users may reuse existing resources and adding automation and intelligence to increase comfort and quality of life along with more privacy and confidentiality.
