Activity Overview
In "Obsession," Agent Don Eppes is investigating a murder in a home that had security cameras installed in it. His brother Charlie helps him figure out where the cameras could see and, more importantly, where they couldn't. He does this by using a model of the home and then applying his knowledge of "The Art Gallery Problem." Depending on the shape of the home, a certain number of cameras are needed to guard the interior.
