Camera-enabled sensors deployed for visual monitoring will cover a region of the target field, providing information for many innovative applications based on wireless sensing. Actually, some areas of the monitored field may have more relevance than others, according to the characteristics of the applications, which may indicate that such areas need better coverage to avoid blind spots and achieve...
Visual sensors can be used to retrieve still images or video streams in a large set of monitoring applications, providing valuable information of the monitored environment. In fact, camera-enabled sensors are directional and the viewed area depends on their orientations. As the positions and orientations of the embedded cameras may not be optimal after deployment, the area viewed by sensors may be...
In wireless visual sensor networks comprised of multiple camera-enabled sensors, source prioritization can be exploited to soften the impact of congestion, packet loss and energy depletion when higher relevant packets are processed. However, for such optimizations, source nodes have to be properly prioritized according to some effective metric. When performing visual sensing over moving targets, sensors...
This research presents an innovative mobile robotic system designed for active surveillance operations. This mobile robot moves along a rail and is equipped with a monocular camera. Thus, it enhances the surveillance capability when compared to conventional systems (mainly composed by multiple static cameras). In addition, the paper proposes a technique for multi-object tracking called MTMP (Multi-Tracking...
