The Camera sensor network is a new advent of technology in which each sensor node can capture video signal, process and communicate with other nodes. We have investigated a dense node configuration. The requested processing task in this network is arbitrary view generation among nodes view. To avoid unnecessary communication between nodes in this network and to speed up the processing time, we propose a distributed processing architecture where the number of nodes sharing image data are optimized. Therefore, each sensor node processes part of the interpolation algorithm with local communication between sensor nodes. Two processing methods are used based on the image size shared. These two methods are F-DP (Fully image shared Distributed Processing) and P-DP (Partially image shared Distributed Processing). In this research, the network processing time has been theoretically analyzed for one user. The theoretical results are compatible with the experimental results. In addition, the performance of proposed DP methods were compared with Centralized Processing (CP). As a result, the best processing method for optimum number of nodes can be chosen based on (i) communication delay of the network, (ii) whether the network has one or more channels for communication among nodes and (iii) the processing ability of nodes.
