Wearable Inertial Sensing for ICT Management of Fall Detection, Fall Prevention, and Assessment in Elderly
Falls are one of the most common causes of accidental injury: approximately, 37.3 million falls requiring medical intervention occur each year. Fall-related injuries may cause disabilities, and in some extreme cases, premature death among older adults, which has a significant impact on health and so...
