独居老人意外事故的发现以及老人与家人的沟通非常重要。本文介绍了一种使用全向图像传感器跟踪和检测老年人跌倒的新方法，以及支持老年人通信并针对检测到的老年人事故发出警报的 Itawari-kan 通信系统。该系统通过对某些全向图像传感器捕获的图像进行图像处理来实时跟踪人的头部位置。然后，系统将检测到的头部位置信息传输到另一个站点。接收站点的计算机生成被跟踪人的计算机图形动画并将该动画显示在监视器上。当系统从头部位置检测到事故时，系统会发出警报。这种方法减少了网络流量并保护了被跟踪者的隐私。我们制作了 Itawari-kan 通信系统的原型系统。系统实验表明该系统具有良好的可行性。
The detection of accidents on elderly person living alone and the communication between the elderly person and his/her family are very important. This paper describes a new method for tracking and fall detection of elderly person using omni-directional image sensor, and the Itawari-kan communication system that supports their communications and gives alarms for detected accidents on the elderly person. This system tracks the person's head position in real-time by image processing on images captured by some omni-directional image sensor. Then, the system transmits the information of the detected head position to another site. The computer of recipient site generates the computer graphics animation of the tracked person and displays the animation on a monitor. When the system detects an accident from the head position, the system gives an alarm. This method reduces traffic on network and keeps the privacy for the tracked person. We made a prototype system of the Itawari-kan communication system. Experiments on the system showed good feasibility of the proposed system.
