An unintentional fall may injure elderly people. This paper aims to develop a portable and efficientdevice, which monitors the fall in the elderly people, by integrating a microcontroller, a tri – axial accelerometer, aGPS/GSM modem. The human activities can be sensed by the low-cost and low power tri - axial accelerometer. Thesystem is composed of data acquisition, fall detection and database for analysis. Triaxial accelerometer is used forhuman position tracking and fall detection. The system is capable of monitoring patients in real time and on the basis ofresults another important parameters of patient can be deducted: the quality of therapy, the time spent on differentactivities, the joint movement, etc. The system, including calibration of accelerometers and measurement is explained indetail.
