Abstract: In the case of old people living alone at home or in care centres, falls represent the most important cause of accidents. To reduce the impact of a fall event, fall detectors have been developed, which are supposed to automatically detect a fall event when it occurs and to send an alarm to a care central in a short period of time. Within the existing projects are especially interesting the autonomous worn fall detectors. In this paper, Fatronik presents its project to develop an improved fall detector. The objective is to enhance the fall detector’s reliability and easiness of use comparing to the existing solutions, and to add new features such as improved location and communication capacities. This paper describes the working outlines of the project, open to suggestions and modifications according to the results obtained at the different stages.
