Detecting activities from video taken with a single camera is an active research area for ML-
based machine vision. In this paper, we examine the next research frontier: near real-time …

A visual sensor network (VSN) consists of a large amount of camera nodes which are able to
process the captured image data locally and to extract the relevant information. The tight …

The new edition of this popular book has been transformed into a hands-on textbook,
focusing on the principles of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), their applications, their …

In this work we characterize the energy consumption of a visual sensor network testbed.
Each node in the testbed consists of a" single-board computer", namely Crossbow's …

Multidimensional sensors, such as digital camera sensors in the visual sensor networks
VSNs generate a huge amount of information compared with the scalar sensors in the …
