Abstract :
This article proposes a new concept for information processing of networked vision sensors. The networked sensor technology has a potential capability to solve some of our most important scientific and societal problems. But, difficulties of the information processing are inherent in such huge amount of information acquired by the distributed vision systems. The proposed concept gets a hint from information processing of human hearing organs. We get the visual recognition by detecting the physical motions of cell-vision systems that move autonomously in their allotted areas.
