Outline of Final Research Achievements

Along with the development of ubiquitous computing technologies, there have been appearing smart home and smart office where sensor devices are embedded and appliances are controlled in response to human activity patterns, therefore recognition technologies for living patterns and human activities are needed. This project proposed a method that detects human movement in home environment with sparsely aligned infrared sensors. The proposed system does not give users the physical and psychological burden since the proposed system does not use cameras nor wearable and mobile devices.
