Abstract: The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has brought drastic security issues in areas considered sensitive like defense zones, industrial installations, and restricted locations. This paper is a double-layered intelligent surveillance system with AI-based drone detection coupled with IoT – enabled ground object monitoring. The air detection module uses a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to analyze live video streams and detect unauthorized flying objects like drones and the ground detection module uses a Node MCU- driven ultrasonic sensor with a servo motor for 180° scanning. Both modules use Fire based cloud services to synchronized at a in real-time and send instant mobile notifications to authorized personnel. The system provides end-to-end aerial and ground-level monitoring, providing scalability, cost-effectiveness, and quick response, and can thus be deployed to high- security contexts including borders, airports, and military bases.
