System for fall prevention for a user, comprising a number of sensors (2) attachable to at least one lower body segment (3), wherein said sensors (2) are adapted to measure movement of said at least one lower body segment (3) and to translate the movement into a signal (S), the system further comprising a control (12) adapted to receive the signal (S) from said respective sensors (2), wherein in use the control (12) observes the signal (S) as an actual sequence of postures of said at least one lower body segment (3) and compares the actual sequence with a predetermined sequence of postures as a function of time, (the predetermined sequence relating to a low risk of falling,) wherein the control (12) is adapted to determine a high risk of falling when the actual sequence deviates from the predetermined sequence (to a certain degree). The invention further relates to a method for fall prevention using such a system for fall prevention. |
