1. A system for detecting inactive objects comprising:
- a thermal imaging device arranged to acquire a thermal signature of an active object;
movement detection processor arranged to process the thermal signature of the active object to monitor for any motion of the active object and whenupon the thermal signature indicates that the motion of the active object is below a movement threshold, determine that the active object is inactive.
