Abstract

The invention discloses a Kinect depth image-based human body fall detection method and device. The method comprises the following steps of: analyzing each frame of depth image of a video shot by a Kinect camera, and determining a bone center point, a shoulder joint center point and a waist center point of a human body in the current depth image; calculating an included angle formed by an upper body trunk center line and a gravity line of the human body in the current depth image so as to obtain the current gravity angle of the human body, wherein the upper body trunk center line is a connection line between the bone center point and the shoulder joint center point of the human body; when the current gravity angle is greater than a threshold angle, calculating a change rate of the gravity angle and a change rate of a centroid height at each time point, wherein the centroid height is a distance between the waist center point and a reference surface or a reference point; and when the change rate of the gravity angle at any time point is greater than a first preset value and the change rate of the centroid height is greater than a second preset value, determining that the human body falls.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of human body fall detection, in particular to a human body fall detection method and device based on a Kinect depth image. Background technique [0002] The detection method of human body fall is widely used in the monitoring of the elderly and children in the family and the monitoring of patients in the hospital. It mainly automatically monitors the activities of the human body through external equipment to detect accidental human fall events. Quickly and effectively discovering the fall behavior can enable the faller to get help in time, shorten the waiting time for help, and minimize the risk of falling. [0003] The existing fall detection core algorithms can be divided into three categories: one is to monitor the height of the center of mass of the detected person through the wearable device, and judge the fall with the real-time monitoring data returned by the wearable device; the other is to use the environmen...
