METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTOUR FITTING AND POSTURE IDENTIFICATION, AND METHOD FOR CONTOUR MODEL ADAPTATION
First Claim
1. A method for contour fitting and posture identification, comprising steps of:
- receiving a sensor data formed of a plurality of sensor signals correlated with a user posture;
determining at least one candidate posture from a set of at least one posture model based on the sensor data; and
determining the user posture from the at least one candidate posture through a decision-making process.

Abstract
A method for contour fitting and posture identification initially receives a sensor data formed of a plurality of sensor signals. Thereafter at least one candidate posture or contour is determined from a set of at least one posture model based on the sensor data. Finally, user posture is determined from the at least one candidate posture through a decision making process. The sensor data can also be used to modify the at least one posture model for increasing identification accuracy. The sampling frequency of each sensor signal is dynamically adjusted to receive the sensor data in a nearly real-time manner.
