Fall detection system
The invention describes a method to detect falls with the help of air pressure sensors. The sensors are attached to the patient’s body facing different directions in order to detect the dynamic pressure caused by a fall. At the same time those parts of the protection equipment protecting the specific part of the body that is likely to experience an impact based on the dynamic pressure are activated.
