Abstract :
The use of smartphones and android applications has become a part of our everyday life. People use it for communication, entertainment and socialization purposes. Many of these applications available in online application markets can be used to broadcast live video and most of these applications are for socializing purposes. In this paper an android application idea is presented to broadcast a video to help in stopping street crime. SVS(Social Video Streaming) enables mobile users to stream live videos of street crimes anywhere, using 3G/4GLTE or Wi-Fi connection This proposed prototype will provide a facility of live streaming of crimes onto a server through a mobile device which will let police or law enforcement agents get information on the spot to enhance a more robust policing. SVS is developed to enable users participate in reducing street crime. It uses the RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) to transmit data in packets over a streaming media server.
