An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a pre-programmed drone which can
serve multiple-applications based on the user requirement. It can be easily
mobilized and also manually controlled if necessary.
This project focuses on a real time Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system
which is capable of detecting a multiple people unlawfully gathering at crit-
ical locations and alerting the concerned authorities by providing the GPS
location of the pseudo-mob. This system assists in prevention of riots and
bring the guilty to justice. Thanks to the robustness of YOLO algorithm which
aids in person detection and ease of access of UAVs, after several testing
phases this system proved to be much efficient than the existing surveillance
systems.
Taking into consideration the present COVID-19 pandemic and the commo-
tion prone areas wherein Section 144 has been issued which prevents the
gathering of more than 4 individuals at a given location for a specific time, this
system is a need of the time and will prove effective when the above-men-
tioned circumstances are encountered.
