Context Aware Fall Detection Using a Mobile Device

In an example method, a mobile device receives sensor data obtained by one or more sensor over a time period. The one or more sensors are worn by a user. Further, the mobile device determines a context of the user based on the sensor data, and obtains a set of rules for processing the sensor data ba...

Zusammenfassung:In an example method, a mobile device receives sensor data obtained by one or more sensor over a time period. The one or more sensors are worn by a user. Further, the mobile device determines a context of the user based on the sensor data, and obtains a set of rules for processing the sensor data based on the context, where the set of rules is specific to the context. The mobile device determines at least one of a likelihood that the user has fallen or a likelihood that the user requires assistance based on the sensor data and the set of rules, and generates one or more notifications based on at least one of the likelihood that the user has fallen or the likelihood that the user requires assistance.
