Abstract
In this research, we developed a sensor system that can recognize a human who exist in overall orientation. The sensor system is configured to use multiple Kinect sensors. The Kinect sensor can obtain environmental information based on depth data, is superior for the detection of human. Since the view of Kinect sensor is narrow, it is made wide range by using six Kinect sensors such as a ring. Furthermore, undetectable angle between every Kinect sensors is removed by swinging the whole sensors driven by a stepping motor. Then, this sensor system accomplishes human detection around the circumference 360 degrees without undetectable angle.
