Abstract

Locating the minimum number of sensors able to see at the same time the entire surface of an object is an important practical problem. Most work presented in this area is restricted to 2D objects. In this paper we present an optimal 3D sensor location algorithms that can locate sensors into a polyhedral environment that are able to see the features of the objects in their entirety. Limitations due to real sensors can be easily taken into account. The algorithm has been implemented, and examples are also given.
