Intelligent visionbased patient surveillance for realtime abnormal behaviour detection in healthcare environments

Project Code :TEMBMA3924

Objective

The objective of the Fall Detection System using Raspberry Pi is to develop an intelligent monitoring system that detects human falls and abnormal behaviors in real time using YOLOv8 and a web camera. The system provides immediate alerts through a buzzer, LCD display, and GSM module to enhance safety and support emergency response in elderly care and security applications.

Abstract

This project introduces a Intelligent vision based patient surveillance for realtime abnormal behaviour detection in healthcare environments. Utilizing a Raspberry Pi as the core processing unit, the system employs a USB web camera to capture real-time video, where the YOLO (You Only Look Once) algorithm is implemented for fast and efficient detection of unusual activities such as falls or lack of movement. Upon detecting an abnormal event, the system activates a buzzer for immediate alert, displays a message on the LCD, and sends an SMS notification through the GSM module to caregivers or family members. This solution provides a low-cost, real-time, and non-invasive method for elderly care, offering continuous safety monitoring in residential and assisted living settings.
