Research On Human Activity Recognition And Indoor Human Localization Based On Distribute Infrared Red Sensor Networks

In 1999, Philips Research first proposed the vision of Ambient Intelligence: in the year 2020, people will live in a world of interconnected, smart, distributed, responsive devices and services and will relate to electronics in more natural and comfortable ways than we do now. Those smart electronics will create a friendly digital environment that is sensitive to people's needs, personalized to their requirements, anticipatory of their behavior and responsive to their presence. People's living standards, therefore, will be improved efficiently. With the technical advances in ubiquitous computing, a situation where processing power is embedded into everything, and wireless sensor networks (WSNs), an integration of sensor techniques, nested computation techniques, distributed commutation techniques and wireless communication techniques, Philips will be able to fully realize its vision of Ambient Intelligence.
