Full-View Barrier Coverage with Rotatable Camera

Abstract—Camera sensors can collect visual information from regions of interest (RoI) and provide more informa-tion to classify the intruder. In practice, randomly deployed camera sensors can not guarantee that the barrier is full-view covered, and lead to a waste of sensing resources. Our work takes the first attempt to explore the deploy-ment strategy to achieve full-view barrier coverage with rotatable camera sensors. We propose a method to select camera sensors from an existing and arbitrary deployment and determine their orientation to obtain a full-view barrier coverage. Our simulation results demonstrate that our algorithm outperforms existing algorithms for fixed directional camera sensors in saving the number of camera sensors. I
