Abstract
An electronic device and a method for remote monitoring a subject calibrates a permitted activity range of the electronic device and establishes an activity range of the subject. The electronic device captures a thermal image to calculate a current location of the subject, and determines whether the current location of the subject is within the activity range of the subject. The electronic device issues an alarm message if the current location of the subject is not within the activity range of the subject.
