Abstract

In-car camera system emerges as a very useful technology for automobile drivers, as it can provide proper evidence to insurance companies and to police investigators in case of car accidents. Dashcam, being one of the car video storage devices, stores the data in the SD card which is overwritten and can be tampered very easily. Thus, it is important to develop an in-car security system, where data can be stored in the server and can provide privacy to the user. In this paper, we have proposed a noise-resilient compressed domain video watermarking system for in-car security to document the vehicle history which can be a proof for any mischief. We have used Independent Pass Coding (INPAC) compression technique for designing the system. Here, data generated by the system is stored in the server database which is accessible to the authentic registered user and administrator in case of any claim. This system ensures copyright, proprietorship, authentication and security against third party intrusion. The proposed system is implemented in off-line mode to evaluate the robustness and efficiency of the algorithm, and in online mode to verify the system. Graphical user interface is designed for the end user access, to make it user friendly.
