Fall detection from a manual wheelchair: preliminary findings based on accelerometers using machine learning techniques.

Automated fall detection devices for individuals who use wheelchairs to minimize the consequences of falls are lacking. This study aimed to develop and train a fall detection algorithm to differentiate falls from wheelchair mobility activities using machine learning techniques. Thirty, healthy, ambu...
