APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING SUBJECTS ON THE BASIS OF VITAL SIGNS
First Claim
1. An apparatus for detecting different subjects on the basis of vital signs, comprising:
- an image detection unit that detects radiation from a field of view and that provides image data from the field of view,a detection unit that defines image sections in the image data and that detects movement pattern in the different image sections,an identification unit that identifies vital signs in the different image section on the basis of the movement pattern, andan analysis unit that analyses the image data, wherein the analysis unit detects the different subjects in the field of view on the basis of a spatial separation of the image sections or of groups of image sections in which the vital signs are identified.

Abstract
An apparatus and a method for detecting different subjects on the basis of vital signs are disclosed. The proposed apparatus comprises an image detection unit for detecting radiation from a field of view and for providing image data from the field of view, a detection unit for defining image sections in the image data and for detecting movement pattern in the different image sections, an identification unit for identifying vital signs in the different image section on the basis of the movement pattern, and an analysis unit for analysing the image data, wherein the analysis unit is adapted to detect the different subjects in the field of view on the basis of a spatial separation of the image sections or of groups of image sections in which the vital signs are identified.
