Overview: For the care of people in bed, the assistance or support for their body motion is an essential task. In this paper, a method was proposed for monitoring three-dimensionally their body motion, which is able to supply 24-hour monitoring with a low cost and high accuracy. Being different from previously developed methods in which a television camera is used to monitor the three dimensional (3D) motion of the body with reflective marker attachments via sequential image processing, this proposed method employs luminous markers and their two-dimensional positioning detectors to determine the 3D coordinates of the markers via a perspective view transformation.
