Optimal placement of accelerometers for fall detection in the elderly Circuit Diagram Short answer: Fall detection using accelerometer and gyroscope Fall detection using accelerometer and gyroscope refers to a technology that utilizes these sensors, commonly found in smartphones or wearables, to detect when a person falls. By measuring changes in acceleration and rotation, algorithms can analyze the data to identify motion patterns associated with falls and activate […] Unlike other prior works, this project proposes using a combination of accelerometer and gyroscope sensors for robust fall detection. While the accelerometer provides valuable information regarding body inertial changes due to impact, the gyroscope provides unique information regarding the body's rotational velocity during a fall event.
The reported results and methodologies represent an advancement of knowledge on real-world fall detection and suggest useful metrics for characterizing fall detection systems for real-world use. Keywords: accelerometer, fall detection, machine learning, wearable, smartphone. 1. Introduction
