Abstract: The project intends to create a wearable artificial intelligence sensor to prevent falls among elderly people. The device will track posture and balance of the user and provide real-time comments meant to prevent falls.
Main components:
- Track your user balance and posture with sensors.
- Offer tactile, visual, or auditory feedback when a fall risk is found.
The wearable device is expected to lower elderly fall incidence, thus improving their quality of life and lowering associated medical expenses connected with injuries caused by falling.
