Patent Images
1. A monitoring system, comprising:
- one or more cameras to determine a three dimensional (3D) body model of a person;
a processor coupled to the one or more cameras to process the 3D body model to detect a dangerous condition based on the 3D model with computer readable code to detect the person'"'"'s fall including;
computer readable code to detect a falling speed of the person'"'"'s center-of-mass (threshold
1);
computer readable code to detect when a body part touches a floor; and
computer readable code to detect a time span without center-of-mass motion after fall (threshold
2); and
a device to generate a warning when the dangerous condition is detected.

22. A monitoring system, comprising:
-
one or more cameras positioned to capture three dimensional (3D) body model of the patient; and a server coupled to the one or more cameras, the server executing code to process the 3D model, to detect a dangerous condition for the patient based on a center of mass of the 3D body model and to allow a remote third party to view images of the patient when the dangerous condition is detected, the code including; computer readable code to detect a falling speed of the person'"'"'s center-of-mass (threshold
1);computer readable code to detect when a body part touches a floor; and computer readable code to detect a time span without center-of-mass motion after fall (threshold
2).
