Abstract

This paper presents the methodologies taken to integrate open-source LIVE555 based data streamer with a baseline H.264 encoder running on the Texas Instruments´s DaVinci based embedded platform. The system implemented is able to stream live H.264 encoded video over the network, and be displayed on remote stations using the VLC media player. The system developed provides an embedded platform to implement a smart surveillance camera system, whereby video analysis can be performed locally on the embedded platform to minimize the streaming throughput by making use of the H.264 motion vector information.
