Study on optimal camera arrangement for positioning people in intelligent space

The intelligent space is a space where we can easily interact with computers and robots, and get useful service from them. In such a space, location information is very important, since the agents cannot provide proper service to a proper people at a proper location without location information. Our positioning system uses CCD cameras. It is important to determine where to put the cameras for the best localization depending on the tasks in the space. The main purpose of this paper is to consider how to arrange cameras for the best localization in the intelligent space.
