Meet Spybot a surveillance device researched and built by a team of #Covenantuniversity students and lecturers exhibited at the ongoing ICTELExpo2017 at Eko hotel.

Spybot is a wireless solar powered surveillance(Multipurpose) System. It has a remote tranceiver that covers a distance of 7-8km.

The device is integrated with an IP(IPZ) camera with infrared light for night vision. This camera allows for remote sensing and control of the system as an #IoT enable smart security surveillance system.

The device is automatically or manually controlled by the user. It has an interface that can work work on Android and serves as a monitoring platform to see the movement of the device.

It can be used in the areas of medical expertise in remote areas, it can also serve as a military gadget to survey enemies against attack.

Nice, this is the kind of News we should be reading about Nigeria, Maybe it will make me think more abt 1 Nigeria

A nairaland can generate avg 5-10%+ monthly to investors too. Check my signature.

It definitely can serve some reconnaissance purpose with the Nigerian army. Particularly since it is not as pronounced as drones. Some developing countries use "basic" drones as surveillance which may get shot down or at least give away intent to survey. I would also like them to expand that 7-8 km to about 30km(if possible) so it can function in very large deserts without putting operator(s) at risk(if they are present) Nice work!

Great

This is a good development that can be commercialized.

Lalasticlala, Mynd44, Seun; come and see!

True that. Commercialization is the way. I guess that's why CU goes for these Exhibitions. To showcase to industry what it can offer. Quite a lot of people in tech were quite impressed. In fact I think it was the only Innovation really profiled by enplug amongst other indigenous devices like smart phones e.t.c
I think if CU can truly align with industry in producing amazing tech then it would be unprecedented funds(for more research) for CU since most other Nigerian public universities are blind to the opportunities for funding that comes with industry partnership.
This is the way CU attracted quanser to build a centre of excellence in engineering on campus. I'm happy to see that the research clusters are coming alive.

Demmzy15 you are very right! It certainly has relevance in the Military. Once the ABUAD industrial research park comes to life(which would lease research space to companies) you may start seeing even crazier innovations from Abuad.
