Abstract

A system of supervision to disabled or aged people and enclosure access control has been developed. It integrates three types of sensors (acoustic, video and smart cards), and at the same time it is capable of interact with other safety systems. These system characteristics are: being robust, modular and extensible, as well as functional and ease to use. Its principal functionalities are: supervision of disabled people at his/her own housing by means of sensors of image (based on movement detection) and acoustic ones (included in a SODAR system), and users’ authentication by means of smart cards use.
