Embodiment Construction

[0041] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, in which the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary, and are intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, the non-contact sleep monitoring method of the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0043] In step S1, the infrared surveillance camera is used to collect video images of the human head area and the chest and abdomen areas, and the body sensing device is used to collect posture information of the human body. Among them, the somatosensory device can be a Kinect somatosensory device.

[0044] Specifically, in this step, the active infrared su...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a system for non-contact sleep monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: using an infrared monitoring camera to acquire video images of a head region and abdomen and thorax regions of a human body, and using a somatosensory device to acquire attitude information of the human body; acquiring sleep information of the human body; and comparing the sleep information of the human body with preset standard sleep information, and analyzing health degree of human body sleep quality. The method is based on an image processing technology, and acquires sleep signals of a human body by a non-contact method. The method maintains natural sleep state of a user to the greatest extent, and sleep state information with physiological significance is extracted through a video image processing technology. The system is low in device cost, and provides convenience for daily use of a family.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sleep monitoring, in particular to a non-contact sleep monitoring method and system. Background technique [0002] The process of human sleep is the physiological state of neuronal sleep in the brain region presented by the interaction and regulation of multiple brain functions. It is an important stage of rest and recovery of normal human functions. One-third of life is spent in sleep. However, sleep quality is very important to human health. In recent years, medical research has shown that many major diseases of modern humans, such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, arrhythmia, diabetes, etc., are often related to sleep apnea syndrome (Sleep Hypopnea Syn-drome, SAH) that often occurs during sleep. SAH has become a disease that seriously endangers people's lives and health. In addition, many internal physiological functions of the human body will undergo significant changes during sleep, such as slowe...
