Event‐driven system for fall detection using body‐worn accelerometer and depth sensor

The authors present efficient and effective algorithms for fall detection on the basis of sequences of depth maps and data from a wireless inertial sensor worn by a monitored person. A set of descriptors is discussed to permit distinguishing between accidental falls and activities of daily living. E...
