- Abstract:
- This paper is devoted to two sensor technologies that may be employed in care services for elderly and disabled persons. The performance of monitoring systems, based on impulse-radar sensors and on depth sensors, has been systematically compared in a series of experiments which involved the estimation of several healthcare-informative quantities on the basis of data from such sensors. The results of the experiments have shown that, although the estimates based on the radar data are less accurate than those based on the depth data, both types of sensors provide information useful for the medical and healthcare users of the monitoring systems.
