Fall detection from CCTV

Using approved camera views to detect collapse or person-down events.

What it means

Fall detection from CCTV uses camera analysis to flag a person who appears to fall, collapse, or remain down in a defined zone. It should be scoped to approved public or operational areas.

Why it matters

The value is faster awareness when nobody is watching the exact feed at the exact moment.

Evaluation questions

Is the camera angle useful for body posture and floor contact?

Who receives a person-down alert?

Which zones are approved for this use?
