Cypher-Cam

Description

Cypher-Cam is a Python GUI application designed for surveillance using a webcam or surveillance camera. It includes features such as motion detection, noise detection, in/out tracking, and recording functionalities. The application has a user-friendly interface and supports a dark mode for better visibility in low-light conditions.

Features

• Anti-theft alarming system
• Face and motion detection
• Visitor recognition
• Video surveillance
• Dark mode toggle for the GUI

Tech Stack

• Programming Language: Python
• Algorithms: LBPH and Haar-based algorithms
• Python Packages: OpenCV, Skimage, Numpy, Tkinter, simpleaudio

Real-world Applications

• Industrial warehouses
• Banking systems
• Jewelry shops
• Any setting requiring enhanced surveillance

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/drahulsingh/Cypher-Cam.git
   cd Cypher-Cam

2. Install the required packages:

   pip install opencv-python-headless numpy scikit-image simpleaudio

Usage

• To run the application, execute the following command:

python main.py

Dark Mode

The application includes a dark mode feature that can be toggled using the button at the top-right corner of the main window. When dark mode is activated, the UI colors switch to a darker theme, and the toggle button text changes to "Light Mode". Deactivating dark mode reverts to the light theme, and the button text changes back to "Dark Mode".
