A new design of a fall detection system integrating landmark identification and deep learning techniques

arXiv:2610.05749v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This article introduces an innovative system that integrates landmark identification with deep learning to enhance fall detection accuracy and reliability. By utilizing advanced computer vision techniques, such as Media Pipe for spatial recognition, the system effectively differentiates between routine movements and actual falls. The integration of landmarks with a deep learning prediction algorithm minimizes false alarms, ensuring timely responses to genuine falls. Comprehensive experimentation underscores the system's versatility across various scenarios, emphasizing its potential to improve safety and independence for older adults. The training process demonstrates a steady increase in accuracy, stabilizing by the 40th cycle, while error rates decline significantly during the initial cycles. Real-time experiments, involving both male and female participants aged 8 to 50, recorded a remarkable 95% detection rate of falls, demonstrating the system's effectiveness and promising future applications in elder care and smart health monitoring environments.
