Abstract

The advanced, real-time surveillance system for detecting and analyzing criminal activities in video streams. The proposed solution leverages deep learning, computer vision, and motion analysis to identify suspicious behaviors such as fighting, theft, break-ins, and vandalism. The backend, built in Python, utilizes state-of-the-art CNN-LSTM models, while a Next.js-based frontend provides an interactive dashboard for live monitoring, analytics, and alert management. The system features automated incident recording, emergency SOS functionality, and comprehensive analytics, demonstrating high accuracy and practical viability in diverse security environments.
