  An increasing number of systems use indoor positioning for many scenarios
such as asset tracking, health care, games, manufacturing, logistics, shopping,
and security. Many technologies are available and the use of depth cameras is
becoming more and more attractive as this kind of device becomes affordable and
easy to handle. This paper contributes to the effort of creating an indoor
positioning system based on low cost depth cameras (Kinect). A method is
proposed to optimize the calibration of the depth cameras, to describe the
multi-camera data fusion and to specify a global positioning projection to
maintain the compatibility with outdoor positioning systems.
  The monitoring of the people trajectories at home is intended for the early
detection of a shift in daily activities which highlights disabilities and loss
of autonomy. This system is meant to improve homecare health management at home
for a better end of life at a sustainable cost for the community.
