This software is an "Automated Security Surveillance System" for your laptop or desktop computer. When activated, this system detects and reports whenever an unauthorized person attempts to touch your device.
Using OpenCV, the system accesses your webcam and opens the live video feed to monitor the surroundings and using advanced Proximity-Detection it calculates the distance between a detected human body and the lens of your webcam and if the calculated distance is less or equal to the defined DISTANCE_DANGER_THRESHOLD, it triggers a loud alarm to stun the intruder and alerts other people that an intruder is trying to touch your computer.
- You first have to run the application and will be first greeted by the welcome window. You then have to click on the "START" button to activate the security feature
- After clicking on the "Start button", you will see the Surveillance window below; with visuals to warn people not touch your computer.
- However, if a person persists to intrude despite the warning, the software will immediately sound a loud alarm, and show a distress icon on the top left of the window as shown below.
- Since VISION is equipt with speech recognition; you only need to verbally utter the "deactivation code" and VISION will terminate its security.
- To deactivate you just have to say: "VISION terminate security system now."
