Real-Life/Real-Time Elderly Fall Detection with a Triaxial Accelerometer.
The consequences of a fall on an elderly person can be reduced if the accident is attended by medical personnel within the first hour. Independent elderly people often stay alone for long periods of time, being in more risk if they suffer a fall. The literature offers several approaches for detecting falls with embedded devices or smartphones using a triaxial accelerometer. Most of these approa...

متن کاملFall Detection Algorithm Based on Triaxial Accelerometer and Magnetometer
Fall is a precipitous drop from a height, or from a higher position, which may be accompanied by injuries. This is one of the most dangerous and fearful situation in the elderly living. This is the reason, fast and early detection of the fall is very important to save and rescue the people and avoid the badly prognosis. In this article we are presenting a thresholdbased fall detection algorithm...
متن کاملReal-Time Step-Count Detection and Activity Monitoring Using A Triaxial Accelerometer
We have developed a wearable device that can convert sensor data into real-time step counts and activity levels. Sensor data on gait were acquired using a triaxial accelerometer. A test was performed according to a test protocol for different walking speeds, e.g., slow walking, walking, fast walking, slow running, running, and fast running. Each test was carried out for 36 min on a treadmill wi...
متن کاملFall-MobileGuard: a Smart Real-Time Fall Detection System
This paper proposes Fall-MobileGuard, a novel real-time non-invasive fall detection and alarm notification system. The proposed system, in particular, is able to recognize different types of falls and is based on a wearable inertial sensor node, equipped with a tri-axial accelerometer, worn at the waist and a personal mobile device. The detection method consists of two main processing blocks; t...
