Patent number: 7549335Abstract: A free fall detection device capable of detecting a fall accompanied by rotation is provided. A fall accompanied by rotation is detected based on a waveform of an acceleration signal output from the acceleration detection unit and an angular velocity signal output from the angular velocity detection unit. A gravity center acceleration of the device to be protected is calculated from the acceleration detected by the acceleration detection unit and from the angular velocity detected by the angular velocity detection unit. Even when the device being protected rotates as it falls, the fall of the device can be detected from the detected acceleration or angular velocity. Further, by calculating the gravity center acceleration not affected by the rotation, it is possible to detect a fall of the device with high precision even if the device rotates as it falls.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2006Date of Patent: June 23, 2009Assignee: Hitachi Metals, Ltd.Inventors: Hideki Inoue, Munetoshi Unuma, Yasunori Abe, Masakatsu Saitoh

Publication number: 20070072158Abstract: A behavior of a walker is detected according to combination of detection of the walking behavior on a level and an altitude variation of the walker to more accurately detect the behavior of the walker. A burned calorie can be obtained according to the type of the walking behavior. An altitude variation can be obtained more accurately by integrating altitude variation only at sections with vertical movement during walking. A stride is estimated according to the behavior of the walker in consideration of the vertical movement. Obtained position and traveling direction are used for compensating values in inertial navigation system. The behavior with and without vertical movement is used in a walker navigator and a worker observing system including a worker terminal carried by the walker for detecting the behavior of the worker and a worker observing terminal for providing the detected position and behavior of the walker.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2006Publication date: March 29, 2007Applicants: Hitachi, Ltd., Hitachi Advanced Systems CorporationInventors: Munetoshi Unuma, Fumitaka Otsu, Shinobu Satou, So Higuchi, Hideki Inoue
