Abstract

Traditional surveillance system is a centralized architecture and have some drawbacks including single point of failure and is a private environment. Surveillance videos or images in such environment could not be shared with others so that illegal behavior or people could not be discovered in other surveillance system. Therefore, in this paper we proposed the design of distributed collaborative surveillance system based on blockchain technology. The human face recognition is the basic function in the surveillance system, we use CNN which is a deep leaning technology as the recognition engine and distribute the recognition results to distributed ledger with a secure way in blockchain network. We also reveal the possibility to apply blockchain technology to surveillance system besides the popular usage in financial domain.
