P4A - FallDetection (Web Services)
A module that detects falls (and/or potentially other human locomotion activities) based on the activity-related recordings of accelerometers.
The core algorithm of the module has been built upon a neuro-fuzzy approach.
Dependencies
The following libraries were used to build and test the module. Older subversions may also be compatible
- [OpenCV 2.2.0] (http://opencv.org/) : Used by the FallDetection module for neural networks.
- [Boost] (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/more/getting_started/windows.html) : Used by the samples for manipulating files and directories.
- [Phidget21] (http://www.phidgets.com/docs/OS_-_Windows) : Used by the samples for using the 3-axis phidget accelerometer.
- [C++ REST SDK] (https://casablanca.codeplex.com/) : Used to build the RESTful Web Services.
Usage Instructions
In order to use Fall Detection module, in visual studio, you may follow the following instructions:
Step 1: Create a new project
File -> New -> Project -> Win32 Console Application (Name : Test)
Check: Console application and Precompiled header
Step 2: Create a new project for DLL
Add -> New Project -> Win32 Console Application (Name: FallDetectionDLL)
Check: DLL and MFC
Step 3: Add the code
Copy and paste the [CommonFiles] (https://github.com/P4ALLcerthiti/P4ALL_FallDetection/tree/master/Code) directory into the project directory.
Create a new folder (ex Libs) and place into this folder the libs.
Copy and paste the files from [FallDetection] (https://github.com/P4ALLcerthiti/P4ALL_FallDetection/tree/master/Code) directory into the Dll’s directory (FallDetectionDLL).
Copy and paste the files from [App] (https://github.com/P4ALLcerthiti/P4ALL_FallDetection/tree/master/Supplementary) directory into the project’s code directory (Test).
At FallDetectionDLL project select Add -> Existing Item and add the .h and .cpp files placed at the FallDtectionDLL, FuzzyLite, GMMs, Timestamping directories.
At Test project select Add-> Existing Item and add the .h and .cpp files placed at the Test and the Timestamping directories.
Step 4: Set the solution’s properties
