Method for dynamically setting environmental boundary in image and method for instantly determining human activity
First Claim
1. A method for instantly determining human activity, comprising the steps of:
- retrieving a first image of an environment using a camera at a first angle and a first location and figuring out a boundary setting equation of a reference object and a first environmental boundary in the first image of the environment;
retrieving a second image of the environment where the reference object is located using the camera at a second angle and a second location different from the first angle and the first location, respectively, and figuring out a second environmental boundary in the environment based on the boundary setting equation and a position where the reference object is in the second image of the environment;
determining a third image of a person who is in the environment, recording retention time of the person staying in the environment, and determining a posture of the person based on the third image; and
determining a position where the person is located in the environment according to the second environmental boundary and the third image, and determining activities of the person according to the position and the posture of the person, and the retention time,wherein the method is performed using a processor.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method for dynamically setting an environmental boundary in an image and a method for instantly determining human activity according to the method for dynamically setting the environmental boundary. The method for instantly determining human activity includes the steps of retrieving at least an initial environmental image with a predetermined angle, and calculating a boundary setting equation of an object and an environmental boundary in the initial environmental image; retrieving a dynamic environmental image having the object by using a movable platform, and figuring out a new environmental boundary; determining a human image in the dynamic environmental image, recording retention time of the human image, and determining a human posture; and determining human location according to the environmental boundary in the dynamic environmental image and the human image, and instantly determining the human activity.
