Abstract
Systems and methods of selecting a video stream resolution are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a method comprises, by a network node operationally coupled over a network to a set of optical sensor devices positioned throughout a space that are operable to send at least one of a set of image streams to the network node. The method comprises receiving a first image stream of a set of image streams of the first optical sensor device that is selected based on both a confidence level that at least one object is correctly detected from a second image stream received from the first optical sensor and a current network bandwidth utilization to maintain the current network bandwidth utilization below a network bandwidth utilization threshold, with the first and second image streams having a different resolution and the first optical sensor having a viewing angle towards the detected object.
