Wearable optical sensors for activity spotting
This project will investigate a novel concept for wearable cameras in activity recognition, specifically to use an optical sensors with a small field of view placed at strategic locations to refine recognition of low-complexity sensors. The project will develop, implement, and evaluate algorithms that run on a small embedded platform, such as a watch. At the same time it strives to significantly advance activity spotting techniques reaching precision and recall over 90% on complex spotting tasks.
