FALL DETECTION DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a fall detection device comprising: a sensor, attached to a user, for detecting movement in a plurality of coordinate axis directions; an output unit capable of outputting the user's falling information; and a controller for, if acceleration in a first axis direction, from among the plurality of coordinate axis directions, is converted from a positive value to a negative value on the basis of the movement detected by the sensor, determining that the user has fallen and controlling to output the falling information.
