Abstract
Visual sensors are an indispensable
prerequisite for those AmI environments that require
a surveillance component. One practical issue concerns maximizing the
operational longevity of such sensors as the operational lifetime of an AmI environment itself is dependent on that of its
constituent components. In this paper,
the intelligent agent paradigm is considered as a basis for managing a camera collective such that the
conflicting demands of power usage optimization and system performance are
reconciled.
