motion detection

[kkyc]

Hi...I am currently working on a project which requires me to detect baby abuse such as slapping or beating using the Kinect Xbox 360. I have already installed both SDK and the Kinesthesia on my computer, but i'm not sure how do i program it to detect the abuse. I am still new to the whole labview thing, hence can anyone provide me with examples asap please...Thanks

how are you detecting slapping or beating? by movement or sound....

• once you can sense that, compare it to nominal level and bool out true

i am detecting it by movement ...May i have an example please...thanks

First work out which movement(s) relate to abuse.

Then track movements.

If the tracked movements are the same as the abuse movements then you have abuse.

how do i track the movements? Can i have example on that?

For tracking. you could for instance, get multiple joint positions over time.

I don't have a kinect so I can't help you with specifics of how to do it with the kinect,

should it be something like this?
