Abstract

It is a problem that a nursing home for the elderly does not have enough manpower. A few Staff of nursing home deal with the multiple problem in the night. In these care home, they use the contact sensor to check the leaving bed in the night. However contact sensor cannot distinguish between rolling and rising movement. Then, they have to watch and check around on each calling. That imposes a heavy burden on them. We focus on this problem. If it decreases the time of calling of rolling motion, it can decrease the burden of staffs. We propose a detection system of leaving the bed to decrease the look around the floor. In this research, we propose the double check system using the contact sensor and RGB-D sensor. In the result of experiment, we confirm that the proposed system can detect the rolling motion.
