A wearable fall detector for elderly people based on AHRS and barometric sensor
Falls and their consequences are among the major health care problems affecting functional
mobility and quality of life of elderly people. Even for people living independently, falls are
common occurrences. In this paper, we present a waist-mounted device useful to detect
possible falls in elderly people. Through data coming from a three-axis accelerometer, a
three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis magnetometer, and a barometer sensor integrated into
our device, we are able to obtain a highly accurate estimation about posture and altitude of …
