A Smart Device Enabled System for Autonomous Fall Detection and Alert

The activity model based on 3D acceleration and gyroscope is created in this paper, and the difference between the activities of daily living (ADLs) and falls is analyzed at first. Meanwhile, the k NN algorithm and sliding window are introduced to develop a smart device enabled system for fall detec...
