Nowadays with major advancements in the field of vehicle automation several dangerous and crucial counter terrorist operations are being handled by sophisticated machines which are not only more efficient but are also responsible for saving several human lives. Our project “Border Security System” is built to undertake missions like border patrol, surveillance. The ordinary border patrol system suffers from intensive human involvement. Recently unmanned border patrol system consists of high tech devices, like unmanned aerial vehicles, unattended ground sensors, and surveillance towers equipped with wireless camera. However, any single technique encounters inextricable problems, such as high false alarm rate and line of sight constraints. There require a coherent system that co-ordinates varies technologies to improve the system accuracy. In this project general idea of border security system, wireless sensor network architecture for border patrol system, is introduced. Border security system utilizes a metal detector to detect the presence of explosives and a wireless camera for monitoring the scenario continuously at the remote station.
