Abstract: Inter-state and national security are now more at stake partially owing to the rise of the terrorism groups which constantly avoid trained military and fix their attacks on un-expecting, unarmed civilians. Now as the foes are intensively trained by major terrorism and govt. based groups they usually obtain fancy and latest technology weapons and explosives and, enter into areas they shouldn?t and, carry out their attack with the element of surprise. Now mostly their attacks are carried out successfully, their success factor is based on the unawareness and their unexpected entry into the area. A human being or a soldier cannot constantly have a watch over the possible area as they may commit mistakes or may even let the foes enter unnoticed if they use camouflage techniques. Now to combat this scenario we are planning to introduce, ?Automated Area Surveillance Robot?. This AASR will prove to be the best in surveillance as this AASR will be equipped with the best of the sensors and will collectively process the output of these sensors to possibly detect even heavily trained infiltrators. Equipped with a 60fps camera for image processing along with IR beamers and Ultrasound sensors, its area of use is widened. It possibly can be used by companies and institutions to have a watch over their facility round the clock. It can be used by street associations to have their streets monitored. This AASR may also be of good use to the army. In groups of 8 or 10 AASRs, these can collectively have an intense security over the restricted area. Remote alarms will be set up at strategic places so as when there is an intrusion, this AASR will set off these alarms so that the people or soldiers nearby will be alerted properly. With powerful chassis and motors, this AASR can keep up to the speed of a normal human being thus tailing the intruder constantly. A continuous video feed of the events happening will be relayed to the device monitor wirelessly. Overall this AASR will prove to be the best in security and surveillance systems.
