A fall detection device uses sensors like accelerometers and gyroscopes to monitor a person's movement and orientation in real time. When it identifies a sudden, unexpected change—like a rapid drop followed by stillness—it triggers an alert to a caregiver or emergency service. This technology helps ensure help arrives quickly, especially for seniors living alone, combining continuous tracking with smart analysis to reduce false alarms while staying reliable when it really matters.
