Abstract :
A network of (wireless smart) cameras can analyse the scene from different views. Wireless smart cameras challenge the hardware for low-power consumption and high imaging performance. In this paper we introduce a wireless smart camera based on an SIMD video-analysis processor and an 8051 microcontroller as a local host. Wireless communication is through the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. The camera constructed in this paper is to enable application research into distributed smart camera systems.
