[Fall detection and reliable device design].
Utilizing the three dimensional accelerations measurement and the four-quadrant inclination switch which is developed to send an orientation warning, the fall detection method combining the impact detection and orientation prewarming is presented. And the accuracy of the fall detection is effectively improved.
