In this paper, we address the problem of people detection and tracking in crowded scenes using range cameras. We propose a new method for people detection and localisation based on the combination of background modelling and template matching. The method uses an adaptive background model in the range …

People counting is a challenging task with many applications. We propose a method with a fixed stereo camera that is based on projecting a template onto the depth image. The method was tested on a challenging outdoor dataset with good results and runs in real time.

Valongevallen zijn de meest voorkomende oorzaak van letsel door een ongeval bij ouderen. Omdat veel ouderen alleen wonen is het van belang dat de val tijdig wordt opgemerkt met een alarmsysteem. Er zijn veel systemen op de markt waarbij de gebruiker een alarmknop op een polsband of hanger moet indrukken. …

In this paper we propose a head detection method using range data from a stereo camera. The method is based on a technique that has been introduced in the domain of voxel data. For application in stereo cameras, the technique is extended (1) to be applicable to stereo data, and (2) to be robust with …

We will demonstrate a prototype exergame aimed at the serious domain of elderly fitness. The exergame incorporates straightforward means to gesture recognition, and utilises a Kinect camera to obtain 2.5D sensory data of the human user.
