Abstract

A low power Freescale board with a three-axis capacitive accelerometer and a with Bluetooth connection has been programmed and used in connection with a smartphone for fall detection in Ambient Assisted Living applications. An algorithm for fall detection has been developed using the information of the accelerometers of the board and of the smartphone. The algorithm is part of a user friendly application for the smartphone developed for signaling the falling event.
