Single view geometry and active camera networks made easy
Alberto Del Bimbo, Federico Pernici · 2009
Active camera networks have an important role in surveillance systems for forensic analysis. They have the ability to direct the attention to interesting events that occur in the scene. In order to achieve such behavior the cameras in the network use a process known as sensor slaving where at least two cameras are in a master-slave configuration. The master camera monitors a wide area and tracks moving targets in order to provide the positional information to the slave camera, and the slave camera points toward the targets in high resolution.
