  • Patent number: 10140833
    Abstract: A system for predicting the fall of a subject's body, displaying the subject's body positioning on a monitor screen in a manner not revealing personal health information or otherwise breaching privacy concerns, and warning assistants when the subject is at risk for an imminent fall. The system includes a sensor assembly having a 3-dimensional 3-axis gyroscope and accelerometer positioned centrally on the subject's body to sense the subject's spatial positioning at short intervals and generate a corresponding sequence of positioning data, that is transmitted wirelessly to a processing assembly. A computer processing unit having associated software programming determines whether the displacement differential between the subject's present positioning and the subject's previous positioning exceeds a threshold predictive of imminent bodily fall, accomplished by comparing the subject's displacement differentials of each axis' sequential positioning data obtained after each of said intervals.
