Abstract : A study on the 3-D modeling and analysis of an artificial palm tree structure capable of housing a camera was made. The proposed system's design, simulation, and virtual testing were done using SolidWorks software. This work's primary objective was an aesthetically pleasing and functional solution that integrates with the urban landscape while providing an enhanced concealed security system. The natural form of a palm tree was incorporated into the artificial palm tree structure. The hidden camera ensures optimal coverage without compromising the overall appearance and presence of the device. This is so because, in the Nigerian situation, Miscreants will pull down the structure if they know of its presence. A detailed analysis of the system's structural integrity and stability was achieved using a 3D model of the artificial palm tree structure. Factors such as wind load, weight distribution, and material strength are considered to ensure the design can cope with environmental conditions. Virtual simulations allow for the maximization of the structure, ensuring it complies with safety standards, and the results of VonMise's stress show that the materialsselected for the design are suitable for the work.

Keywords : Surveillance Camera, Artificial Palm Tree, Solidworks, 3D Modelling, Static and Wind Load Analysis.
