Abstract

The invention discloses a fall detection method based on a mobile phone camera. The fall detection method includes the steps: acquiring image information shot by the mobile phone camera and performinggraying processing; acquiring a difference image through a current frame image and a previous frame image; analyzing difference image information to obtain a motion area; calculating the highest point and the lowest point of the motion area and calculating the inclination angles of the two points; judging whether fall occurs or not according to the inclination angles; deploying programs on a mobile phone based on an optimal image fall detection algorithm, acquiring images by the aid of the mobile phone camera serving as a visual sensor, and transmitting abnormal information to a guardian by amobile phone short message module. Cost is reduced, rapid deployment is facilitated, and the fall detection method has the advantages of low manufacturing cost, convenience in installation and maintenance, high fall judgment precision and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of monitoring, in particular to a fall detection method based on a mobile phone camera. Background technique [0002] At present, the number of elderly people in the country is huge, and the death rate caused by the inability to provide quick treatment after a fall has risen sharply. Therefore, fall detection has become a research hotspot. In the research of fall detection, two major directions are involved, one is to use inertial sensors (electronic gyroscopes, angular accelerometers, etc.), and the other is to use visual sensors (ordinary cameras, infrared thermal imaging cameras, etc.), Fall judgment is realized based on the data analysis of these sensors. For example, an electronic gyroscope is used to wear on a person, and when a large acceleration in a certain direction is read, it is considered that the human body has fallen. The visual sensor method is to analyze the image information to determine...
