A fall detection system may be defined as an assistive device placed on humans waist that alerts when a fall has occurred. Such technology is known to reduce the consequences of a fall. The system can detect the persons falling by acceleration analysis and send the geographic position and fall alarm short message to caregivers. So, the elderly who has fallen can get timely help to minimize the negative influence such as pressure ulcer, muscle necrosis, hyperthermia, and pneumonia.
Increase in demand for smartphones and wearable technologies and better ability to assist in case of fall leading to reduced medical expenses drive the market growth. However, low practicality and low acceptability among elders restraint the growth of the market. Global rise in geriatric population is projected to offer growth opportunity.
