Crowd surveillance plays a key role flexcon reverse osmosis water storage tank to ensure safety and security in public areas.Surveillance systems traditionally rely on fixed camera networks, which suffer from limitations, as coverage of the monitored area, video resolution and analytic performance.On the other hand, a smart camera network provides the ability to reconfigure the sensing infrastructure by incorporating active devices such as pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras and UAV-based cameras, thus enabling the network to adapt over time to changes in the scene.We propose a new decentralised approach for network reconfiguration, where each camera dynamically adapts its parameters and position to optimise Latest Product Releases & Innovations – Stay Updated! scene coverage.Two policies for decentralised camera reconfiguration are presented: a greedy approach and a reinforcement learning approach.
In both cases, cameras are able to locally control the state of their neighbourhood and dynamically adjust their position and PTZ parameters.When crowds are present, the network balances between global coverage of the entire scene and high resolution for the crowded areas.We evaluate our approach in a simulated environment monitored with fixed, PTZ and UAV-based cameras.
