Abstract

This paper proposes a new cooperative control model for the surveillance system which consists of plural Pan-Tilt-Zoom cameras and no central control unit. Each camera adjusts their observation area to decrease blind spots in the whole surveillance area by the control model based on reaction-diffusion equation. Simulation results have shown that the surveillance system is able to cover new blind spots when some cameras are removed or are rearranged in their placement.
