REMOTE BIOMETRIC MONITORING SYSTEM

摘要

Remote biometric monitoring systems may include a digital camera having a digital sensor, a processor, and a memory, all enclosed in a common housing. The processor of the camera may locally execute one or more algorithms to perform computer vision analysis of captured images of a sleeping subject, thereby determining an activity state of the subject. The activity state may include a sleep state. One or more environmental control devices may be adjusted automatically by the system based at least in part on the activity state.

1. A system for remotely monitoring a sleeping subject, the system comprising:
a digital camera configured to capture images of a subject, the camera including a digital image sensor, one or more processors in communication with the digital image sensor, and a memory, wherein the digital image sensor, the one or more processors, and the memory are enclosed in a same housing; an environmental sensor in communication with the one or more processors of the digital camera, the environmental sensor configured to detect a physical characteristic of a local environment of the subject; an environmental control device in communication with the one or more processors of the digital camera, the environmental control device configured to produce a change in the local environment of the subject; and a set of instructions stored in the memory of the digital camera and executable locally by the one or more processors to:
receive a sensed input from the environmental sensor and a plurality of time-sequenced images of the subject from the digital image sensor;determine, using an artificial intelligence module, a position of a body region of the subject in a subset of images of the time-sequenced plurality of images;identify, using the position of the body region determined by the artificial intelligence module to perform a biometric analysis on the plurality of time-sequenced images, an activity state of the subject; andcause a change in the environmental control device based on the sensed input and the activity state of the subject.
