Novel Hierarchical Fall Detection Algorithm Using a Multiphase Fall Model
Falls are the primary cause of accidents for the elderly in the living environment. Reducing hazards in the living environment and performing exercises for training balance and muscles are the common strategies for fall prevention. However, falls cannot be avoided completely; fall detection provides an alarm that can decrease injuries or death caused by the lack of rescue. The automatic fall de...
متن کاملA Fall Detection System based on the Type II Fuzzy Logic and Multi-Objective PSO Algorithm
The Elderly health is an important and noticeable issue; since these people are priceless resources of experience in the society. Elderly adults are more likely to be severely injured or to die following falls. Hence, fast detection of such incidents may even lead to saving the life of the injured person. Several techniques have been proposed lately for the fall detection of people, mostly cate...
متن کاملFall Detection Using Kinect Sensor and Fall Energy Image
One of the main reasons for low acceptance by seniors the available technology for automatic fall detection is that the existing devices generate too much false alarms. Additionally, the camera-based devices do not preserve the privacy adequately. In our approach an accelerometer is utilized to indicate a potential fall. A fall hypothesis is then verified in the second stage in which we employ ...
متن کاملFall Detection System Based on Kinect Sensor Using Novel Detection and Posture Recognition Algorithm
Elderly suffers from injuries or disabilities through falls every year. With a high likelihood of falls causing serious injury or death, falling can be extremely dangerous, especially when the victim is home-alone and is unable to seek timely medical assistance. Our fall detection systems aims to solve this problem by automatically detecting falls and notify healthcare services or the victim’s ...
متن کاملFall Detection Using a Head-Worn Barometer
Falls are a significant health and social problem for older adults and their relatives. In this paper we study the use of a barometer placed at the user’s head (e.g., embedded in a pair of glasses) as a means to improve current wearable sensor-based fall detection methods. This approach proves useful to reliably detect falls even if the acceleration produced during the impact is relatively smal...
