ABSTRACT
We propose a system to identify people in a sensor network. The system fuses motion information measured from wearable accelerometer nodes with motion traces of each person detected by a camera node. This allows people to be uniquely identified with the IDs the accelerometer-node that they wear, while their positions are measured using the cameras. The system can run in real time, with high precision and recall results. A prototype implementation using iMote2s with camera boards and wearable TI EZ430 nodes with accelerometer sensorboards is also described.

Persistent people tracking and face capture using a PTZ camera
Pan---tilt---zoom (PTZ) camera is a powerful tool in far-field scenarios. However, most of the current PTZ surveillance systems require manual intervention to move the camera to the desired position. In this paper, we address the problem of persistent ...
