MEDICAL USE ANGULAR RATE SENSOR

摘要

A sensor unit to detect a falling event that includes a gyroscope attached to a monitored person, a micro-controller communicatively coupled to the gyroscope, and a memory communicatively coupled to receive and to store angular velocity data with a correlated time. The gyroscope senses an angular velocity of the monitored person and outputs the angular velocity data based on the sensed angular velocity. The micro-controller receives the angular velocity data and recognizes falling-pattern data in the angular velocity data.
