A capacitive proximity sensing scheme for human motion detection

This work demonstrates a non-invasive capacitive proximity based floor sensing system to monitor the motion of a human body (elderly patients). Monitoring the motion of an elderly patient can help them to move freely without the limitation of staying in a restricted environment which is suited for h...
