FALL DETECTION AND PROTECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

The invention provides a fall detection and protection system and method. The fall detection and protection system includes a guarding device to be worn on a user, and a portable device having a pre-determined threshold value stored therein for detecting an activity of a user to acquire an activity status value, which is to be compared with the threshold value so as to detect and determine whether the user falls. When a fall is detected, the portable device transmits a triggering signal to the guarding device to activate the guarding function of the guarding device, thereby preventing the user from injury caused by the impact and collision of a fall.

1. A fall detection and protection system, comprising:
a guarding device capable of being worn on a user and having a guarding function for reducing impact upon falling; and a portable device, comprising:
a detecting unit for detecting an activity of the user to obtain an activity status value;a comparison unit for comparing the activity status value with a pre-determined threshold value to detect and determine a status of the user; anda triggering unit for transmitting a triggering signal to the guarding device to activate the guarding function when the status of the user indicates a fall.
