The single-barometer device worn on a user is used to measure multiple barometric values continuously by a barometer inside the device.

The fall event is confirmed if the barometric difference is larger than the threshold. Further, an acceleration change obtained by an accelerometer inside the single-barometer device can be used to reconfirm the fall event.
