A household remote video monitoring platform is designed and basis of embedded and WIFI wireless network. This system chooses S3C6410 microprocessor which based on ARM11 cores as the kernel controler regards USB camera as capture terminal, captures video with application function which provided by Video4Linux2, encodes and decodes the video by T264 software, and transfers the video data and control instruction rely on RTP/RTCP protocol and TCP protocol through WIFI wireless network. The experimental results show that this platform makes video image smooth, and it can well meet the demand of household wireless video monitoring application. At the same time, this platform has simple structure, low cost, and easy to promote.
