New Fast Fall Detection Method Based on Spatio-Temporal Context Tracking of Head by Using Depth Images

In order to deal with the problem of projection occurring in fall detection with two-dimensional (2D) grey or color images, this paper proposed a robust fall detection method based on spatio-temporal context tracking over three-dimensional (3D) depth images that are captured by the Kinect sensor. I...
