Optimal deployment of cameras for video surveillance systems
F. Angella, Livier Reithler, F. Gallesio · 2007
This article describes a new method which aims at the optimal deployment of sensors for video-surveillance systems, taking realistic models of fixed and PTZ cameras into account, as well as video analysis requirements. The approach relies on a spatial translation of constraints, a method for fast exploration of potential solutions and hardware acceleration of inter-visibility computation. This operational tool allows the evaluation of complex surveillance systems prior installation thanks to a precise simulation of their spatial coverage.
