摘要：The menace of crime particularly Armed Robbery, Kidnapping, Oil theft and Burglary in Nigeria today is real and potent. Many Schemes have been devised so far to control this trend but all the current strategies have not been able to reduce the threat. E-neighborhood is particularly neighborhood originated electronic monitoring system to monitor the movement of criminals in a neighborhood in order to nip their activities in the bud so as to either prevent crime commission or track crime after it is committed. In this work we examine various crime control methods adopted so far to reduce incidences of armed robbery in Nigeria and propose an e-neighborhood paradigm for crime detection and control. The system has the basic component of the Voice to Text (VTT) interface, Centre Control (CC), Main server, sub-servers, pagers and mobile phones. It is capable of receiving the voice message of crime alert and automatically translating the voice message to text massage for further processing.
