In this paper, we propose a Vehicular Surveillance and Sensing System (VS3), which targets at car security and tracking applications. VS3 can be triggered by events detected inside or outside a car, such as abnormal air quality, potential burglary, and identification of some target vehicles (such as stolen cars). Via a 3G module, a user can interact with VS3 via multimedia communications. For security applications, we show how VS3 detects an abnormal CO2 level or potential car burglary, notifies the vehicle owner, and then interacts with the owner. For tracking applications, we show how VS3 identifies potential stolen vehicles, transmits reports to the police department, and get neighboring cars involved to cooperatively track suspicious vehicles. This paper demonstrates our current prototype.

Vehicular networks have attracted a lot of attention recently. One potential application of vehicular networks is to use video cameras embedded in vehicles to support video surveillance, which we call "surveillance on-the-road". Traditional surveillance systems only rely on fixed stations on the roads to monitor road conditions. With vehicular cameras, deeper and richer road conditions may be tracked. In this paper, we study the related communication issues to support such "on-the-road" surveillance scenarios. We use monitoring and tracking suspicious vehicles (such as stolen cars) on the road through license plate recognition (LPR) as an example (our results should be applicable to other scenarios as well). We show how vehicles can work cooperatively through vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications to achieve this goal. With a tracking and a reporting modules, our solution does not rely on infrastructure networks. The tracking module allows handoff of a tracking job to neighboring vehicles as necessary and report of suspicious vehicles to nearby police cars. The reporting module can help guide message flows to avoid flooding the network. Simulation results verify the message efficiency of our approach. We also show how our framework can be applied to the developing WAVE/DSRC (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments/Dedicated Short Range Communications) standards. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

The Vehicular Surveillance and Sensing System (VS(3)) is a 3G-based mobile device for car security applications. On the car side, it consists of a CO(2) sensor, a camera module, a 3G module, and a microprocessor. On the user side, only a 3G mobile phone is needed. VS(3) provides the following features: (i) it can be triggered by events detected on car, (ii) events can be abnormal air quality or potential burglary, and (iii) it supports text or multimedia interaction with users. Application scenarios include detecting an abnormal CO(2) level or potential car burglary, which triggers VS(3) to transmit SMS, MMS, or interactive video call to the vehicle owner, who can then monitor the car situation in return. VS(3) thus demonstrates a new car security and burglarproof prototype.
