Abstract
A home health care monitoring method and system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes: capturing a plurality of video sequences from a plurality of respective cameras disposed in different locations within a patient's home, including capturing two-dimensional image data and depth data for each video sequence; defining a plurality of events to monitor associated with the patient, the events including, during a predetermined time period, at least (1) the patient's body being in a particular position for at least a predetermined amount of time; performing depth-enhanced video content analysis on the plurality of video sequences to determine whether the event (1) has occurred. The video content analysis may include: for each of at least two cameras: automatically detecting a human object based on the two-dimensional image data; using the depth data to confirm whether the human object is in the particular position; and based on the confirmation, tracking an amount of time that the human object is in the particular position; and then determining that the event (1) has occurred based on the collective tracked amount of time.
