Human Fall Detection via Webcam (and E-mail Alert)
[Fall Detection code source : https://github.com/harishrithish7/Fall-Detection]
- MATLAB - R2019b or higher
- MATLAB Toolboxes:
a. Image Acquisition Toolbox
b. Image Processing Toolbox
c. Computer Vision Toolbox
Run 'falldetection_via_webcam.m' . This would read from the webcam as long as the program runs, and detect the falling action of a human in the feed. An e-mail alert would be send to user after fall detection.
To edit sender's and receiver's email addresses (and password and message), modify 'sendemail.m' .
