报告摘要:The worldwide flourishing of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the past decade has enabled numerous new applications through the internetworking of a wide variety of devices and sensors. More recently, visual sensors have seen their considerable booming because they usually capable of providing richer and more versatile information. Internetworking of large scale visual sensors has been named Internet of Video Things (IoVT). IoVT has its own unique characteristics in sensing, transmission, storage, and analysis, which are essentially different from conventional IoT. These new characteristics of IoVT are expected to impose significant challenges to existing technical infrastructures. In this talk, an overview of recent advances in various fronts of IoVT will be introduced and a broad range of technological and system challenges will be presented. This talk will also outline five major application areas.
