Claim 8:
9. The multi-purpose video monitoring camera as in claim 8, wherein the motion detection module is activated after the baby presence detection module updates check-in/check-out status as check-in and is configured to:
(1) obtain input from the CMOS video camera and the thermographic video camera;
(2) detect positions of head and limbs of the baby in the fields of view of the CMOS video camera and the thermographic video camera from the input obtained in (1);
(3) determine posture of the baby by measuring height levels of the detected head and limbs, curvature and orientation of the detected limbs, and separation among the detected head and limbs;
(4) determine motion of the baby based on frame by frame analysis of the posture determined in (3) over a period of time;
(5) build a history of the motion determined in (4);
(6) determine whether the baby is idle for a predetermined period of time from the history built in (5).
