EN In this paper, a collaborative method for activity control of a network of cameras is presented. The method adjusts the activation level of all nodes in the network according to the observed scene activity, so that no vital information is missed, and the rate of communication and power consumption can be reduced. The proposed method is very flexible as an arbitrary number of activity levels can be defined, and it is easily adapted to the performed task. The method can be used either as a standalone solution, or integrated with other algorithms, due to its relatively low computational cost. The results of preliminary small scale test confirm its correct operation.
