The study of different motion between adl and fall situation

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
Falling of the elderly has become an important issue in today's aging society. The key task to prevent falling is the exact detection of a falling event in Activities of Daily Living (ADL). However, certain ADL situations are difficult to classify due to motion and acceleration values of the fall situation. In this study, a methodology for experiments of the fall event and ADL is proposed using the accelerometer and the gyro-sensor. As the results of motion between ADL and fall situation were compared, the similarities and differences in the two situations were analysed.
