| Abstract |
Methods for detecting human presence in danger zones are not always satisfactory because existing systems such as light curtains or pressure sensitive mats have a low discriminating capacity as well as a lack of flexibility with respect to the configuration of the area to be protected. To overcome these limitations and satisfy the need for a broader field of application, current development work is focussed on vision-based devices. This article analyses four image processing systems designed to detect human presence in danger zones. Some of these systems appear to be reliable. |
