Abstract
Example implementations include a method, apparatus and computer-readable medium for computer vision detection of a fall event, comprising detecting a person in a first image captured at a first time. The implementations further include identifying a plurality of keypoints on the person in an image, wherein the plurality of keypoints, when connected, indicate a pose of the person. Additionally, the implementations further include detecting, using the plurality of keypoints, that the person has fallen in response to determining that, subsequent to the pose being the standing pose in a previous image, the keypoints of the plurality of keypoints associated with the shoulders of the person are higher than the keypoints of the second plurality of keypoints associated with the eyes and the ears of the person in the second image. Additionally, the implementations further include generating an alert indicating that the person has fallen.
