Abstract
The advancement of military internet of things (IoT) surveillance demands real-time casualty detection across distributed camera networks under diverse environmental conditions. Traditional surveillance systems suffer from high latency, bandwidth inefficiency and unreliable cross-camera identity tracking, indicating the need for advanced detection and tracking systems. This study presents an edge-based multicamera casualty detection and tracking system for military IoT networks. The proposed framework, called CCTV-TrackNet, integrates lightweight AI on distributed camera nodes built on Raspberry Pi Zero2W hardware with high-resolution cameras and sensors such as GPS and IMU. At each node, YOLOv12n performs real-time person and casualty detection, DeepSORT maintains short-term continuity, and OSNet-based Re-ID extracts appearance embeddings for cross-camera association. A central server aggregates metadata for global identification, visualizes trajectories, and generates real-time alerts. Experimental results show 90.77% detection accuracy, 37% and 36% reduction in false cases, 30.3 FPS edge performance, and 84.20% cross-camera ID consistency.
The results demonstrate that a modular, open-source, multi-model architecture can provide broad surveillance coverage, cloud-based auditability, and flexibility for adding new detection capabilities while maintaining practical real-time performance.

Conventional video surveillance based on pixel-level deep-learning models is resource hungry, processes gigabytes of video material, and retains biometric identifying data. This paper describes a lightweight, privacy-sensitive alternative that uses skeletal pose estimation to replace pixel-based processing. We only pro...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used in search and rescue operations due to their rapid deployment and wide-area coverage. However, many existing UAV-based systems focus mainly on victim detection and do not provide accurate geographic coordinates, which limits their usefulness in real rescue missions....
