A Smart and Intelligent Security System for Healthcare Facilities with AWS and Raspberry Pi Integration

ABSTRACT

The main aim of this chapter is to build a smart security device to cater to the security problems that have arisen in the recent times, in the healthcare facilities, with the onset of the covid19 pandemic. With more and more people occupied with providing emergency services, the special restricted mode in our designed smart security system will help in flexible surveillance of hospital wards as per requirement. The demand within the global market for healthcare security systems has been rising on account of the need to ensure optimal security and productivity across all hospitals and healthcare facilities. A smart security system with IoT and cloud connectivity, along with multiple smart modes to cater to the needs of the user is the need of the hour. With the onset of the pandemic situation, things have become more intense, with minimal efforts given towards surveillance. This is where our smart security system finds its application along with other restricted zones. With its seamless connection with AWS for 24 × 7 connectivity with the user, one can expect constant updates as per requirement. With the integration of raspberry pi, other security features are also achieved like a fire alarm, motion detection, gas sensing, temperature detection, footfall tracking and noise detection with stable conditions. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
