BABY MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A baby monitoring device comprising:
- a storage unit;
a processor;
one or more programs stored in the storage unit, executable by the processor, the one or more programs comprising;
an image obtaining module operable to obtain an image captured by a camera, the image comprising a distance information indicating distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera;
a model creating module operable to create a 3D scene model according to the captured image and the distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera;
a detecting module operable to determine whether one or more babies appear in the created 3D scene model, and further to determine whether the one or more distances between the one or more babies and one or more electronic appliances being monitored are less than a preset value according to the distances between the camera and the one or more babies, the distances between the camera and the one or more electronic appliances being monitored, and a stored horizontal field of view of the camera; and
an executing module operable to output a warning and cut off power supply to the one or more electronic appliances being monitored whose distances to the one or more babies are less than the preset value.

Abstract
An exemplary baby monitoring method includes obtaining an image captured by a camera. The image includes a distance information indicating distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera. The method then creates a 3D scene model according to the captured image and the distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera. Next, the method determines whether any baby appears in the created 3D scene model, and further determines whether the distances between the babies and electronic appliances are less than a preset value according to the distances between the camera and the babies, the distances between the camera and the electronic appliances, and a stored horizontal field of view of the camera. The method then outputs a warning and cuts off power supply to the electronic appliances whose distance to the one or more babies are less than the preset value.

14. A non-transitory storage medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions capable of being executed by a processor of a baby monitoring device, cause the baby monitoring device to perform a baby monitoring method, the method comprising:
-
obtaining an image captured by a camera, the image comprising a distance information indicating distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera; creating a 3D scene model according to the captured image and the distances between the camera and objects captured by the camera; determining whether one or more babies appear in the created 3D scene model, and further determining whether the one or more distances between the one or more babies and one or more electronic appliances being monitored are less than a preset value according to the distances between the camera and the one or more babies, the distances between the camera and the one or more electronic appliances being monitored, and a stored horizontal field of view of the camera; and outputting a warning and cutting off power supply to the determined one or more electronic appliances being monitored whose distance to the one or more babies are less than the preset value. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
