Abstract :
This paper deals with a basic model of surveillance system which can travel in horizontal as vertical surface. SWAT which stands for surveillance wall acclivitous tracker is a wireless controlled surveillance system. The SWAT is powered from an AC voltage and the control inputs are coordinated through the PIC16F628. SWAT in reality resembles a lizard and scales the vertical surface using suction cups driven by suction motors. SWAT also has a night vision camera for capturing the details and the details are sent to the remote server in wireless channel. Though the SWAT doesn´t have an on board power supply and suction motor to support it, in future there are provisions for having them onboard.
