Abstract

In this paper, a novel fall detection and automatic alarm system has been designed and presented, which consists of sensor module, control module and communication module. The sensor modules composed of 3-axis accelerometers are placed on object’s pocket to monitor the object’s acceleration. System is driven by an inexpensive and low consumption microcontroller. When object is fall, the system will detect it by the abnormal acceleration and make accurate positioning through GPS immediately. The alarm as well as location information is sent via 3G network to the mobile phone number that has been set. The system has the advantages of portable, low-power and accuracy.
