IoT Method and Apparatus for IoT Camera Virtualization Based on Multiple Service Request and Context-awareness

摘要

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for virtualizing an Internet-of-Things (IoT) camera based on multiple service requests and context-awareness. According to the present embodiment, in order to perform video analysis according to multiple application-awareness, a virtual IoT camera is configured such that the virtual IoT camera is decoupled from a physical camera. An objective of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for virtualizing an IoT camera, capable of maintaining a quality of service (QoS) according to application requirements by dynamically resetting a virtual IoT camera based on context-awareness for environmental factors. The apparatus for virtualizing the IoT camera includes: at least one virtual camera container; and a virtual camera hypervisor.
