Mobile Autonomous Personal Emergency Response System Utilizing Face Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper outlines the design and implementation of the Fallen Angel, an autonomous mobile robot that can act as a personal emergency response system. Fallen Angel patrols the home avoiding obstacles while searching for someone who has fallen on the ground. Once a person is detected lying on the floor using face detection, it calls for help by sending preprogrammed text messages and e-mails to a list of predetermined emergency contacts.

متن کاملUsing Smartphones and Wireless Mobile Sensor Networks to Detect Car Accidents and Provide Situational Awareness to Emergency Responders
Accident detection systems help reduce fatalities stemming from car accidents by decreasing the response time of emergency responders. Wireless mobile sensor networks coupled with smartphones and their onboard sensors (such as GPS receivers and accelerometers) are promising platforms for constructing such systems. This paper provides three contributions to the study of using smartphone-based wi...
متن کاملOn Survivability of Mobile Cyber Physical Systems with Intrusion Detection
In this paper we address the survivability issue of amobile cyber physical system (MCPS) comprising sensor-carried human actors, vehicles, or robots assembled together for executing a specific mission in battlefield or emergency response situations. We develop a mathematical model to assess the survivability property of aMCPS subject to energy exhaustion and security failure. Our model-based an...
