Title
Passive, in-home gait measurement using an inexpensive depth camera: Initial results
Abstract
In-home gait measurement results from the apartments of seven older adults obtained using an environmentally mounted depth camera, the Microsoft Kinect, are presented. Previous work evaluating the use of the Kinect for in-home gait assessment in a lab setting has shown the potential of this approach. In this work, a single Kinect sensor and computer have been deployed in five apartments, two of which contain multiple residents, in an independent living facility for older adults. Data collected in the five apartments, along with techniques for generating automated gait measurements from the data, are presented.
