• Propose an algorithm developed from
the selected component for motion
detection.
The components were selected
and the algorithm for motion
detection was proposed which
used these components. A
working prototype for motion
detection was built.
This project is to develop an important
component for medical alert-monitoring
systems, which today include GPS satellite
tracking technology and location mapping in
the event of an emergency. The goal of this
project has been to develop an innovative
fall detection system. The following research
phases were performed:
• Evaluate several commercially available
components for developing a fall
detection system
• Evaluate the components for varying
performance parameters
• Rank the components for an optimized
solution
