Abstract

Wireless Visual Sensor Networks (WVSNs) are a branch of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), WVSN nodes vary from standard WSN nodes in the ability of sensing the environment in two dimensions rather than in one. Therefore, it follows the three main fundamentals of WSNs: wireless networking, distributed sensing and low power hardware. This paper discusses different challenges that face the design of WVSNs like deployment of nodes, field of view overlapping, image analysis, area coverage and energy consumption. Efforts have been done mainly to survey the problem of energy consumption that can affect the lifetime of visual sensor network and overview the different techniques that have been used by many researchers to handle this crucial issue.
