Abstract
This paper primarily focuses on figuring out the best array of cameras, or visual sensors, so that such a placement enables the maximum utilization of these visual sensors. Maximizing the utilization of these cameras can convert to another problem that is simpler for the formulation, that is, maximizing the total coverage with these cameras. To solve the problem, the coverage problem is first defined subject to the capabilities and limits of cameras. Then, poses of cameras are analyzed for the best arrangement.
