The CARE project targeted the automated recognition and alarming of critical situations (like fall detection) using a visual sensor and real-time processing while preserving the privacy and taking into account system dependability issues (reliability, availability, security, and safety). A biologically-inspired neuromorphic vision sensor from AIT was integrated in the Everon (alarm, security, and monitoring) system for seamless analysis and tracking of older people at home. This real-time information can be exploited for incident detection (e.g., fall detection) and an instantaneous alarm.
The project was completed September 2012
