F2D, Fall Detection Device

Abstract (French)

F2D is a fall detection system running on a smartwatch. Unlike traditional systems that need a base station and an alarm central, F2D works completely independently, protecting so its user at home but also outside. It uses the current context as well as the user profile to offer more accuracy in the fall detection process. Running on a standard smartwatch, F2D is less stigmatising for the user and can be offered for less than half price of existing systems on the market.
