Cloud and mobile computing domains have become quite popular these days. Besides, the ubiquitous smartphones are increasingly becoming a dominant platform for collaborative sensing, so we built an android application SmartMobiCam, which aids in forming the robust and scalable Smart city video surveillance system which is critical for upgrading the urban areas. The application obtains video feed, images and sound clips from the users and then uses cloud services for video enhancement and restoration of the content and provides it to all subscribers including police investigators. The application is explained with detailed architectural and technological choices. Performance analysis shows that the proposed application performs well and outperforms the traditional surveillance system.
