Abstract

A video monitoring system includes a camera head, which includes an infrared illumination source and an image sensor and is configured to transmit streaming video signals generated by the image sensor. A mount is configured to hold the camera head in a fixed location and orientation above a bed such that the image sensor captures images from a bird's eye view of a child in the bed. A processor is configured to receive and analyze the video signals so as to extract and provide information to a client device with regard to a behavior of the child.
