KR-20260062468-A - Home resident monittoring system and method

Abstract

The present invention relates to a home resident monitoring system and method, comprising a first recognition unit installed inside the front door to detect when a resident leaves the front door, a second recognition unit installed outside the front door to detect when a resident goes outside, a server that receives and processes location and time information of the resident detected by the first recognition unit and the second recognition unit, and a terminal that displays the location of the resident and controls a set time according to the location of the resident, thereby having the effect of preventing the disappearance and lonely death of an elderly person with dementia living alone.

Claims (5)

1. A first recognition unit installed on the inside of the front door to detect when a resident leaves the front door, and A second recognition unit installed outside the front door to detect when a resident has gone outside, and A server that receives and processes location and time information of a resident detected by the first recognition unit and the second recognition unit, and A home resident monitoring system characterized by comprising a terminal that displays the location of the resident and controls the set time according to the resident's location.
2. In paragraph 1, A home resident monitoring system characterized by sounding an alarm on a terminal if the resident does not return home within a set time while out, or if the set time passes after returning home.
3. In paragraph 1, A home resident monitoring system and method characterized by further including a camera that recognizes the face of the above-mentioned resident.
4. A recognition unit initialization step for initializing the first recognition unit and the second recognition unit, and An alarm time setting step for setting the return time when the resident is out, or for setting the time spent at home after returning, and A step for determining whether a resident has gone out through the first recognition unit and the second recognition unit, and A step for notifying the resident of their departure via a terminal, and an outing notification stage, and A return-home determination step that determines whether a resident has returned home through a first recognition unit and a second recognition unit, and A return-home alarm stage that notifies the terminal that the resident has not returned home within the set return-home time, and A return-home notification stage that informs the terminal whether the resident has returned home within the set return time, and An abnormality determination step for determining whether the set time has passed since the resident returned home, and A home resident monitoring method characterized by an abnormal alarm stage that notifies a terminal whether a set time has passed since the resident returned home.
5. In paragraph 4, A home resident monitoring method further comprising a resident recognition step in which a camera recognizes the face of the resident when the resident goes out or returns home to determine if the resident is a resident.

Description

Home resident monitoring system and method The present invention relates to a home resident monitoring system and method, and more specifically, to a home resident monitoring system and method that measures and reports how long a resident spends away from home and how long they stay at home after returning home, and sends an alarm after a designated time has passed. Due to the trend toward nuclear families and an aging population, the number of elderly people living alone without spouses or relatives is increasing. Furthermore, in dual-income households, young children often have to go to school or after-school classes alone; consequently, these elderly individuals and children frequently require supervision by a guardian. In other words, even if they are within the same household, it is difficult to ask for help if they get sick or have an accident, and if they do not return home, it may not be immediately noticed, which could lead to additional accidents. To this end, technology has been developed that allows guardians to track the location of their children using GPS. Specifically, by tracking the real-time location of children carrying smartphones or wearing accessories with location-transmitting capabilities and notifying the guardian via their device, it enables verification of the children's safe commute to and from school even from a distance. The prior art performing the above functions, as seen in Korean Registered Patent No. 10-2004131, comprises: a shuttle vehicle terminal provided in a shuttle vehicle transporting children, which wirelessly transmits the shuttle vehicle interior video captured by a CCTV provided in the shuttle vehicle and the shuttle vehicle's GPS location information to a control center server, and detects beacon identification information of beacon devices worn by children boarding the shuttle vehicle and wirelessly transmits it to the control center server; a control center server that provides a safe return home notification screen including a GPS location display electronic map and the shuttle vehicle interior video to a parent terminal assigned to the beacon identification information; and a parent terminal used by a parent, which displays a safe return home notification screen including a GPS location display electronic map and the shuttle vehicle interior video received from the control center server, wherein the control center server comprises: a server communication unit that communicates with the shuttle vehicle terminal and the parent terminal, respectively; and a beacon information storage unit in which information on children wearing beacon devices and parent terminal information are assigned and stored according to the beacon identification information. A GPS location display electronic map generation unit that receives GPS location information of a shuttle vehicle and generates a GPS location display electronic map showing the location of the shuttle vehicle; a shuttle vehicle interior video storage unit that receives and stores vehicle interior video; and a safe return home notification screen providing unit that generates a safe return home notification screen displaying the GPS location display electronic map and the shuttle vehicle interior video, and transmits it to a parent terminal of a child where beacon identification information is detected. The system includes a storage unit for a pre-set drop-off location designated by a parent terminal, and the safe return notification screen providing unit identifies the GPS location information of the shuttle vehicle in real time. When the shuttle vehicle approaches within a set distance from the pre-set drop-off location, the system displays and transmits the pre-set drop-off time, pre-set drop-off location, and the shuttle vehicle's GPS location on the safe return notification screen to a parent terminal within the set distance. The control center server, upon receiving a drop-off location change message from a parent terminal that has been notified of the pre-set drop-off time, provides the changed drop-off location of the child for whom the drop-off location change was requested to the escort terminal of the shuttle vehicle. The shuttle vehicle terminal determines that a child wearing a beacon device having the beacon identification information is on board if beacon identification information is continuously detected while the shuttle vehicle is in motion, and determines that the child wearing the beacon device having the beacon identification information has disembarked if the beacon device of the child on board the shuttle vehicle is not detected after the shuttle vehicle has departed. However, the conventional technology configuration had the following problems. Since GPS signals have a large margin of error and cannot be detected indoors, there is a problem in that it can be mistaken for returning home even when one is staying near the house without actually entering it.
